I hear a hysterical laugh, and smile. Tapping my foot rhythmically on the bed as I flip each page of my book. Each chapter brings new excitements, and discoveries. I glance at my calendar, briefly skimming the many things I have left to do. My eyes return to the book I am reading. Action, description, emotion. I reach page 350 and debate: there are other things I should be doing. But I read one more word, and another, and cannot stop. The child outside laughs more. I look out my window, and then bring my eyes back to the book, and the story it tells.
Sounds like a really good book, what book was it?
ReplyDeleteI loved how you narrated the story. What book was it?
ReplyDeleteI get that feeling! Usually it's at night then I stay up till 11:30 and I think, I need to sleep, but read for 30 more minutes then go to sleep. What book?
ReplyDeleteLike Willa, I usually read for a good 2 hours. By then it is 11:00 PM, and my cat gives me the stink eye wondering why I am still up.
ReplyDeleteWhat book is it? :)
