Bibliosynchronicity

Of or relating to a strange phenomenon where as you're reading a new book things occurring in the pages mimic or are extremely similar to your actual real life.

Examples of this would be similar months (book says May and it's actually May) whilst reading the book.

You watch a documentary on Jackson Pollock only to find a huge unbeknownst reference to his paintings and life in the book.
You read an article on Frederick Law Olmstead only to be surprised that he's endeavors and name have made an appearance in the book you're reading.

After putting the book down for the night the bibliosynchronicity was on the forefront of my mind. This new book I was reading was mimicking my present circumstances with the man I was dating right down to his wife having died. The similarities were eerie.
