Have you ever finished a book, then later wonder how the characters are doing, then remember that they’re not real?

Actually I was lucky enough to have read my first biography not that long ago and wondered about the main character and her best friends in the book. Lucky for me it was an author requested review and I was able to inquire about them after I finished to find out that they were all very much still in touch. It was like closure that I had to have LOL.
Yes.
I was reading a novel in which the teenaged main character, Theo Decker, loses his mother. That tragedy sets in motion a series of other losses and heartbreaks for him. I had to keep telling myself, “You don’t have to worry about him. Theo Decker isn’t real!” Now I occasionally find myself thinking, “Gosh, I really hope Theo’s life has improved and that he’s happy.” And then I’m back to, “Theo Decker isn’t real. Theo Decker isn’t real.” ?
All of the time!
Yes! And wished for a sequel just so I could find out.
