I’ve realized that lately I’ve been reading some certain books because I want to see myself in them and now I worry that I’m self-inserting and/or projecting. Would it be bad if I was? I just want to find a main character who feels like me
Read what u like but also I do personally enjoy the nature of entering the lives of “people” I am nothing like and experiencing something different yknow what I mean

I almost exclusively read books with characters like myself, not to self insert, but so I won’t feel so alone.
