I hope you’ve all had a great weekend. I’ve had a good one but have been a bit busy spending time with my mom and when I wasn’t spending time with her, I’ve been trying to sneak in pages of The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.
You guys weren’t kidding. This book is wonderful!
So I guess I can’t complain about not finding a good book now. Ha. I’m going to make this a super quick post because I have to get used to my morning routine now that I’m back at work but I still want to read more of my book. I’m a little bit more than half way through it and can’t wait to see what happens next.
So are you also reading a book you are finding hard to put down? Tell me, I may want to check that out next.

I first read about Hunger Games from Sandy, then it’s been going around the book blogging world. Like you, I cannot put down a book that constantly seizes my attention, even if I am in the middle of doing something else. I talked about when it’s inappropriate to read; and I think it depends on the company. Sometimes I read over breakfast with friends. If I’m stuck in a very good book like this one, I’ll prefer to read over meeting my friends! 🙂 The last book I finish is such a book: Emma by Jane Austen!
I’m glad you’re enjoying the book, Iliana! I had had a hard time putting down the series myself, and I can’t wait for the third book to release! I’m currently reading The Woman in Black by Susan Hill and it’s so intriguing that it’s unputdownable for me! 😉
Well, this may just flame the fire (ha! pun intended) but Catching Fire was the same way. The kids and I were addicted to the audios. It has been awhile though since I’ve had a book I couldn’t put down. Maybe The Adoration of Jenna Fox? Or right now, I’m listening to The Girl Who Played with Fire, and I don’t want to stop. I haven’t figured out how to listen while I am in the shower, but I’ve got just about everything else covered!
The last book I read that I couldn’t book down was The Devil’s Arithmetic by Jane Yolen. I’ll be reviewing it soon. The fact that it’s a middle-grade/YA book makes it easy to blow through in one sitting. It was so, so good!
Glad you’re liking The Hunger Games. My husband and I really enjoyed it. He’s not much of a reader, and he couldn’t put it down!
Glad to hear you are loving this one too.
Walking the Bible by Bruce Feiler. So good!
I picked up Hate List by Jennifer Brown on Saturday afternoon and had finished it before noon on Sunday. Another YA hit for me! Glad to hear you are enjoying The Hunger Games. 🙂
So glad you’re liking this one! I’m reading Mrs. Dalloway, and I find it hard to put down when I have the time to sink into it. It’s one of those books that’s difficult to dip into and out of.
I still haven’t read this one and can see that I am missing out. Enjoy getting lost in the rest of the book!
Glad you found a good book to keep you engaged! Those are usually the best kind! And my long weekend is now over so I have to get ready for work, too. That whole work thing just gets in the way of reading, doesn’t it?!
This one is still on my list. Glad you love it!
I am glad you are enjoying getting lost in your current read. I am actually heavily into reading Pride & Prejudice and really enjoying it. I was needing a break from the crime fiction…
I couldn’t put this down either! Great choice to reverse a reading slump.
I’ve been under a rock and hadn’t heard of this one! LOL
I think I finished it in one day. I was glad I started it on the weekend:-) Catching Fire is just as good.
It’s always wonderful when you can find a book that holds your attention like that. I am glad you are enjoying it!
