Few things are more satisfying than finishing a book in one sitting. The feeling of completely immersing yourself in a story and getting all the way to the end without disruption. There’s really nothing quite like it. The book doesn’t even have to be good, it’s the act of reading that makes the experience great. This binge reading has consumed my life for some time now.
I read a lot. It’s sort of my thing. These days I mostly read for school, and I enjoy those readings for the most part. But there is always a part of me that wants to be reading something fun, even when I do not have time. To make sure I get a little bit of fun in my life I try to keep a couple books on hand that I can read to unwind after a long day.
Because I have so little time, I rarely get to devour a book in one sitting. I almost never feel that satisfaction of sitting down with a book and not moving until I finish.
Unfortunately, I tend to have the worst timing when it comes to binge reading. During stressful times I often turn to reading as a way to relax, and then I get swept up in the stories. I will stay up all night to finish a book if I like it enough.
Last semester I read a whole 5 book series during finals week.
I have found that binge reading is almost as life consuming as binge watching my favorite shows on Netflix, and sometimes I do both at the same time. There are worse ways to spend my free time I suppose.
Binge responsibly, my friends!
