How many of us have felt this way while reading a Harry Dresden Book?
Yes, that is a bad thing. I try not to cut too far into sleep time before work. Once or twice I went with virtually no sleep. Not such a great idea.

Several times. It usually happens when I haven't finished it yet.

Usually? How often did it happen after you finished?

Before I have finished -- 100% of the time.

After I finished -- depends how much I really really want to reread it.
It happens.




I bet you thought I was joking.

I know you were kidding. I mean. I believe you said the truth exactly in a way that it is to be misunderstood. Of course the chance of it happening when you read the first time is likely higher. Usually means most of the time. But I seriously asked without kidding - because there was a chance you also loose sense of time while rereading.

Happens to everybody, I believe.

No, I mean finish the book and then have to reread it, because I can't put it down.
As in, back-to-back rereading.

Guilty on the trying-to-get-myself-misunderstood part.



Mildly on-topic: Yes, this happened with a Jim Butcher book or two. e.g. Skin Game.
Ohmygod it was crazy!

Waiting to see how Jim will top that...

Skin Game is one of those that make you want to reread back to back.
Spoiler:
Just to see if it is different with the knowledge the wayback machine later in the book is providing.

P.S. Thanks for the karma, Duckie!

I very much enjoyed that multi-meaning statement.
It has so many ways it could be interpreted -- and they're all true!
