Have you ever had a moment where you're reading a book and suddenly you recognize a piece of yourself in your main character? I think it takes a very good writer who can make you feel like that despite obvious differences you and the character may have. It is because of that, we find ourselves emotionally invested in various novels.
We can relate to clumsiness, quirkiness,anger, jealousy and happiness.When the characters are in touch with their emotions and go through their ups and downs, we get that. Even when the characters are in denial, we get that too.
The more human they are, the more invested we get. It doesn't matter if they are Cyborgs, Aliens, or animals. They could be a blob for all we care.All I know is this,the closer the writer gets to human action/reaction and emotion, the better we connect.
I don't think I will list my doppelganger books today. I just wanted to talk about that a bit.
