Why do you keep reading when you need to do other things such as sleeping,

Once I hit a certain point in a book I don't want to put it down. I'll stay up half the night to finish it even if I have to get up early the next day.

The main time I read is before I go to bed... so occasionally I should be sleeping instead of reading. But for the most part, I read for about half an hour, then go to sleep. So it takes me a while to finish a book, but at least I don't feel like I'm wasting any time. I used to read a lot more during the day, but I'm just involved in too many activities to be able to do that now.

I think one of the reasons I tend to read at night, even when I'm really tired and should go to bed, is because I recognize it as free time. And it's something I love to do, and even though I should be sleeping, I need that little bit of free time to myself. And although I may be tired, I want to have some fun other than sleeping. This isn't very good because the next morning when I'm really tired I always regret it. Lol...

It's an addiction to reading, the fact I hate sleep,and I know I can finish the ook pretty quick. I don't do it all the time. Alot of the time, yes, but not constantly, or else I'd NEVER get anything done. Which I do. So ha. Lol. But yeah..I love reading and writing more than alot else..it's just one of my passions..so it just happens to be what I do alot of the time. Read and write.

I do that all the time and have done that all my life. I'll keep up late into the night reading something that catches my interest. I just can't stop myself reading and if I do I'll only think about what will happen next. I read all the Harry Potter books in a little over a week when I first discovered them more than five years ago, but I haven't read quite so fast since then.

I love to read and there are nights that I just can't put the book I'm reading down until I finish it. I have know to read at traffic lights, sitting in the parking lot before work, and when I get out of bed. It has to be a good book though.
