Yes, this is why we read. Not all the books are as good as this, but with the best books you won't notice the time or your surroundings, your attention is wholly on the story.

The only problem with a really good book is reading it in bed. Normally I'll stop and go to sleep after half an hour or so. With a really good book I'll read until I finish it, and then find I only have time for three or four hours of sleep!
