Do you have the same?

When you start reading a new book and you really like this book you can't stop reading till the last page is read?

So often I have this.

Not usually, I can usually stop after about an hour or so. I usually only read in the evening. So if I read for more than an hour or 2 I tend to fall asleep anyway.

My wife has this problem though. She has been known to stay up most of the night just to finish a book.

I find it hard to read a book, as I'm either out, or watching TV, or updating a website somewhere.

If I do get round to reading, then sometimes I can find it hard to put the book down. Best I've done is 2 1/2 books in 6 days.

I like to stretch a book out. Except for a few rarities, a book I read will take me a while simply because the characters seem more real if you stretch it out a bit. Also, the passage of time in the book also seems more realistic to me.

When I read, I also like to imagine what the characters look like, how they talk, what they wear, etc. I guess I take the book and make a movie in my head.

When I read a book I can try to imgine how they look like, how the act and when the book is out I would like how it goes with the characters of that book.
I can go very deeply into the characters.
I have the same with a movie.
Sometimes a touching movie can "get me' so deep that my husband has to tell me "it's only a movie, not real.
That's why I never watch movies over the war or with a lot of violence.

I can certainly relate to that. If I read a book too quickly I tend to forget most (if not all) of it quickly as well.

I tend to do mosy of my reading on the porcelain throne...lol

I too seem to have the "movie" going in my head. If the movie doesn't start by the end of the first chapter, I move on to another book.

I have read three books in some weeks.
The book I started in this week I don't like.
Time to trade it and to take an other stock.
Sometimes I don't read for months.
I trow oneself to books.
Or is became nuts of books better?
If that is not said well, please show me how I have to tell it better.
