Well, read a book recently, I could not hand it down, it's absolutely sensational: One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marchez.It's a book in which time has no importance, generations mingle, so to speak, so exciting the first day that I read 300 pages and I did not want the evening to sleep, because I feel like I do and I some of those strange their family. It should be read carefully because at some point no longer know which are the characters,because the author of several characters give the same name (of course, are related to each other). My opinion, read it!! Especially since they say it's one of the best books of the world ...

Well, I did. I love books especially those which are suspense. I could finish them in just about 2-3 hours. I like Sidney Sheldon's books. I really love them!

Yes. There are a lot of books I can't afford to put down til its finished. There are a lot of good reads. I love novels, I am addicted to it. Like books of Judith Mcnaught, Julie Garwood, and a whole lot more. There are so many books that I really love.

Yes, in the past I ever read a science fiction book. The content is so attractive for me. I couldn't stop reading it and then finally I finished it in a whole night. I love China

I love reading books and whenever I get hooked to one I really find it hard to put down. One of the most recent books I've read was The Hunger Games trilogy. I even counted the days when the next installement would be released and be available here in our country. I've finished those three books in just a few days.

YEs as a matter of fact I have! It is usually with every Francine Rivers book. She has such a captivating way of writing I love every word. I'll think, "Okay after this chapter I'll quit." Then she'll throw in a twist and I have to read on to find out what happened!

Sure, it has happened to me many times! And it always happens to me when I read Harlan Coben's books, every time!

It happens all the time. I'm pretty addicted to reading, so if a book really captures me, I can't do anything else until I've finished reading it. Some days, I just don't get anything done.

I've read many books that I love. But I will admit any book by the late author E. Lynn Harris; Those are books I can never put down. I usually read them in a day or two depending on how much free reading time I have in my day. Great books, he was an amazing author.

Oh yeah. Loads. Too many to list. I'm not one who puts down books anyway though. I've stayed up late reading books that I hated just cause I wanted to finish them and get them out of the way. So I'm weird like that. I love to read.
