Recent LLM role-playing systems build character agents from novels by extracting characters, scenes, and relations. Yet long-narrative role playing suffers from two failures: Factual Overreach, where shared retrieval or parametric memory lets a character use facts outside its perspective, and Stylistic Monotony, where profile descriptions flatten a character into a fixed voice. To address these failures, we propose ReverieMem, a three-layer memory architecture for book-based character agents. The episodic layer stores first-person scene memories; the semantic layer stores visibility-tagged facts; and the personality layer stores situation-dependent speech and behaviour patterns. We evaluate ReverieMem and six reference methods on KBF-QA, a new benchmark of 4,386 questions across eight novels that assesses character knowledge boundaries. ReverieMem improves Knowledge Boundary Fidelity by 34.6 percentage points over the strongest reference method. On BookWorld's five-dimension pairwise narrative protocol, ReverieMem achieves a mean win rate of 78.86% against BookWorld across five generator LLMs and two generation modes, suggesting that perspective-bounded memory improves both boundary fidelity and character-grounded narrative generation.
