Yes, I do experience some sort of visual, auditory and sometimes smell and even taste feedback while reading. Generally not touch though - that could get creepy. But as others have said, it's not like a movie, or a VR set or something, I do not literally hear the characters speak. For me it's more like a memory of the event that forms as I'm reading and tends, as issybird described, to be something like snapshots.
Apropos of Karellen and hildea's comments about making up their own narratives: one of the reasons why I took up writing again (after decades away) is that I found I could get the same effect while writing. It's quite a buzz while it's working, but doesn't happen all the time.
