There are so many books I've picked up that I've not been able to put down. Its a bad habit. I like so many different books!

Uh, yes! ^^
Once someone mentioned Terry Pratchett's series on another avatar forum, so I decided to try it someday after, because well..HP never really satisfied me =/
I COULDN'T PUT THE THING DOWN!
The first was Light Fantastic..amazing. Should have read The Colour of Magic first though. I'm currently reading another of his, Making Money.

Wow, I feel bad for not bothering to italic those titles! XD

*sigh* Last year "The High King's Tomb" by Kristian Britain came out, and we had it on preorder. I swore to myself I wouldn't read it till the weekend, because I knew I wouldn't be able to put it down. I'd been waiting for it for three years after all. That evening I picked it up, promising I'd only read it till ten. Ten rolled around, I was a third through the book, and I swear that's when the exciting part started. I finished it at five in the morning, and made myself go to school anyway. I deserved it!

I had that happen to me when I read the Harry Potter books for the first time - the earlier ones at least. I would be reading a page, only to find a while later that I had been reading and re-reading the same sentence, but I didn't notice because the story kept going in my mind, even though my eyes were still on that sentence. :D

I also got drawn into "The Bartemaeus Trilogy" when I read it. I stayed up very, very late to finish the last book, only to find that when it wasn't all that dark in the room anymore I didn't give a whoot about the end anymore, so I book marked my spot and went to sleep so that I could be properly happy when I finished it. XD

Lets see... "Where The Red Fern Grows" was one that sucked me in, even with it's terribly sad ending, and I'm currently reading "Fablehaven" and even though I'm not very far, it's doing an amazing job of sucking the reader in to the story. :3

Oh, all the time!

Most recently, as in from the past few months, the books I've been unable to put down have been The Lionboy Trilogy by Zizou Corder, Wildwood Dancing by Juliet Mariller, Shade's Children by Garth Nix, Brisngr by Christopher Paolini, and A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini.

Wildwood Dancing in particular was difficult to put down. I put it down once when my friend came over, and I stayed outside talking to her for about fifteen minutes before I told her I really needed to finish this astounding book I was reading.

This happens to me quite often.
I get so absorbed in the words of the printed paper that I don't even know the time.
Or how long I've been reading.

But I think it's nice to get lost in the world of books.
It's a great way to escape reality!

The first time this happened to me, I was reading "A Series of Unfortunate Events."

I have that with a lot of my romance novels. Some of them are so good I just have to keep reading. I can't put the book down. Even if it's late and I have work the next day. I just get so immersed in them.

Getting so absorbed into a book that I can't put it down is my normal method of reading. And also probably the reason I read a lot less in college, since I couldn't devote that time.

I like letting myself sink so deeply into a book that I totally forget that I am even turning pages. I know a book has been good if I finish the book, blink, and then wonder when I had turned through all those pages in the first place.

I've picked up books that I did not want to put down. However, I don't have the time to sit and read a 500 or more page book at once. (I say 500 pages or more because I don't think I've bought a book smaller than that in a long time. If I found a shorter book that I really liked, I could probably finish that in one sitting. Unfortunately, I'm not that fast of a reader, so somewhere before I can finish the 500 pages, I get interrupted by 'real life.')

That happened when I read Harry Potter, also. And when I read The Right Hand of Evil by John Saul.

This happens to me quite often actually. Especially with horror classics like Frankenstein and Dracula. The first time I read Frankenstein was back in high school. No one wanted to read it but once I started, I couldn't stop. It is by far one of my favorite books.

Every single on of Terry Goodkind's books have done that to me. He is an amazing author. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows did that also, though that was mostly because I really wanted to know how she finished the series. Ann McCaffery has been known to do that to me as well, especially Dragon Singer and Dragon .... something, I can't quite remember the name of it, unfortunately.

I was that way with Betrayed and Chosen by P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast. It was just so hard to stop reading, when Zoey was having so many problems turning into a ho(her words, not mine, I swear:P) I couldn't really get into Betrayed until the end of the book because in the beginning it was pretty much Zoey whining about how much she was going to suck at being a vampire.:sarcasm:

I am like that with a lot of book as I just loving reading. The only Books that Don't do that fto me are the Classical ones such as Great expectations by charles dickens talk about boring but i had to read.

I Am the Messenger by Markus Zusak. I finished it within two days of checking it out.

Also, the Ender's Shadow series by Orson Scott Card. The books following Ender's Game (Xenocide, Speaker of the Dead, etc.) never grabbed me as Shadow of the Hegemon and Shadow of the Giant have.

The Abhorsen trilogy and Shade's Children by Garth Nyx have been fairly arresting as well. Speaking of trilogies, the Bartimaeus books by Jonathon Stroud have kept me on end.

And Shogun and Noble House by James Clavell never failed to keep me attached despite their length. I've been spoiled by them, though; I can't seem to get into any other book in the Asian saga.

this happens to me a lot, I've stayed most of the night reading. cause I just couldn't put it down. I did this a lot.
