Have you ever read an entire book in just one day? If so, do you remember what it was?
I know I did when I was in high school but it has been a long long time-- I am thinking it was a VC Andrews book, I was really hooked on her books back then.

Yes... a couple by Michael Crichton, James Rollins, I may have read Dracula in a day...or maybe it was two? Anything that's super good (to me...
)

I used to read V.C.Andrews back in highschool too. I am sure I have read a whole book in a day but can`t remember the titles.

I read The Nanny Diaries in a day, but it was only because the book club was meeting the next day. I liked the book, but not enough to read it all in one day.

I used to do it all the time, and no, I don't remember what it was, but more than likely it when I was about 18 and going through my trashy Harlequelin phase

<p>Nope, can't say that I have. But at 30 my mom finally told me that she thinks I may have a reading disorder. So I read very slow. I don't think I could if I tried.</p>

I have read many books in a day but don't really remember what they are. Usually it's when we are on vacation and I don't have anything else that is competing for my time.

oh yeah!
The one I remember the most was The Last Converible ( a wonderfully romatic but very thick book about four friends, their lives and a bit of a mystery thrown in too). I not only read most of the day but stayed up until 3 in the morning to finish it!

I have to admit, yes, I have done that, many times. In fact, when the girls were little they used to love when I picked up a book because if they played quietly I would forget the time and they got to stay up late. Last book was last week, DH told me to read a book he just finished. No Time For Goodbye by Linwood Barclay. I started it at 1:30 and finished it around 7:30! It was a very fast reading book though. (and yes, i did make dinner, only dh cleaned up from it so i could continue reading, lol)

I don't remember what it was, but I tend to be obsessed when I'm reading a good book so it probably happened more than once.

Yup, can't remember what it was though. It was back when I was 19.
