Do you always read the whole book at one time?

I have done that a few times. If the book if really interesting I will stay up and read it until it is finished. I have stayed up until 4am finishing a book when I had to be at work at 8am before.

I almost always read whole books at a time before I had people to tell me to get my nose out of the book.:P

These days I never get to read a book at a one time, because I have a husband, a son, a job... things like that. I kind of miss being able to just sit down with a book and read it from start to finish some days. Now I tend to squeeze my reading time in while doing other things, or during my work breaks, or after my son goes to sleep.

I've never had a problem reading textbooks or anything, though. I can read pretty much anything, without getting bored or wanting to put it down.

I have done that so many times. I did that recently when I started Angels and Demons, I just cant wait to know what is happening. And I finished the entire book in one full night.

Reading is my passion and obession.

I never have time anymore to sit down and just read a book. I also tend to have more than one going at a time. Just strange I guess.

I have been known numerous times to pick up a book, and start reading it, not putting it down til I have finished it. But the book has to catch my attention and pull me into it for me to do this. Other times, I can start a book read a few chapters, and put it back down, not picking it back up for a few days. For me it just depends mainly on the book, and how well the author grasps my attention.

YES.. i always love to finish the content of the whole book because i want to know or im so eager to be in the next chapter and get done with it.. to know what the story is all about

I like thrillers and mysteries and depending on how the book starts, determines how long I will read it. If its starts of good and gets my attention then I read it right through, if not then I read a few chapters at a time.

Normlly yes I do pick up a book and not put it down until I finish it, but lately I haven't really been in the mood to read either, I've been concentrating on making money online, for I feel that is the only way I can earn a digital camera.

I bought Grisham's book last week, and I have yet to even get past the 3rd page, and that's just not like me......

But I've been known to buy a book and have it done by 4 or 5 the next morning, lately Ive been mylotting....
and PTC sights.

Mooch

I read the whole book until it's completed...I mean I could not even put Harry Potter down...

Had to eat at weird times because of that...I think i had my dinner at 2am that day while completing Harry Potter...

I feel that unless i complete the book i wont feel satisfied..Hence,I read on.You have to admit though that after the book is finished it feels great,as though a great achievement was made.

I'm a Med-student so i have to study huge books...but trust me completing a novel and completing Guyton's book on Physiology are 2 very different things...even though they are both interesting.

I was like you when I was younger. Always had the Nancy Drew books in my face. Now that shows my age. Any way, I couldnt put those books down for nothing. I to had to find out "who dunnit". Its silly but it felt wrong to leave those characters waiting if I did put the book down. Now I dont have the time to read a book all at once. In the long run this is better for me. I tend to become attatched to a charactor in a story and the longer the time it takes me to get thru the story the longer the relationship with the charactor. Perhaps this is why so many series novels become popular.
