+247 When you read a book with characters that have the same names as people you know, you always picture the character looking like that person you know, amirite?

Well, if it is a general name like Katie, I would picture the character to what the description is. But if it is something like Palmer, I would begin picturing the character as the description, but then start thinking of one of my friends :)

It makes it awkward when one of the main characters has the same name as your mentally challenged family member. Especially when her name is NOT common. I don't know if I picture the character looking like her, but I can't help thinking about her when I read the book.
