Read All Night... Almost

It's been a long time since I had a book I couldn't put down - and actually had the time to keep reading. Usually when I know I have a book I'll want to devour in one sitting I put it to one side to save it for a time when I can do just that. I guess that's why I have some books from favourite authors that have been gathering dust for years.

Recently I made a decision to start making changes to my life and get things back in balance. Less work, more time for family and play (and writing!).

So last night I picked up one of those books I've been saving up. I chose The Hunger Games. I've been wanting to read them forever (I've had the trilogy since the last book came out). With my eldest Barbarian almost at an age where he can read them I thought I'd better get to them first. And I want to see the movies but won't watch them until the books are read.

Totally. Loved. Book 1. Couldn't put it down (as I hoped) and forced myself to switch the bed light off at 1am. I'm well into book 2 now and I know it will be another late reading session for me tonight. At least it's Friday so it doesn't matter when I turn the light off.

When was the last time you had a book you couldn't put down? Please share the details of the book because I love finding new books to read.
