So I saved it a week ago, and we aren't leaving until Friday, and I am going nuts. Of course the book I am reading in the meantime is awful, so that just makes it worse. I occurs to me that this is really odd behavior, but since it involves reading, I am sure someone here either does this or can tell me what they do to prolong the joy from a really good book.
I couldn't do that. I'd be afraid that the break in-between would lessen the impact of the book. Like when you pause a movie. I also can't read more than one (fiction) book at a time. Good, bad or indifferent, that author has me beginning to end.
