There is nothing more toe curling, pillow biting, bed sheet griping, body tingling, moan inducing, mind-numbing, bliss and crash than a good book. No, scratch that- an amazing book. I'm talking about those kind of books that take you on a whirlwind, sweep-you-off-your-feet type of adventure. Those books where you can do nothing, feel nothing and think of nothing but the book. Those books where you are no longer you, but rather the characters and you are no longer in reality, but transported to a whole other dimension where nerds and jocks or bad boys fall in love in the span of one chapter, 15 pages? Where demons and dragons, fairies and magic exist? Where kingdoms get saved and life ends with a smile, a happily ever after or, the more rare, a gruesome end yet still, somehow, all is right with the world. Where once you are done reading them, you literally have no idea what to do with your life so you kinda just:

1. Lay there.

2. Cry.

The pain is real!!

3. Search every nook and cranny of the internet for more.

Which can really be anything and everything from fanart, fanfics, stalking the author's webpage to buying the entire series and every book the author has ever wrote, because #obsession.

4. Fantasize.

Because you could totally become the queen of a animorphic (where you can change or shift into an animal) world where you turn into a hawk and have to marry the enemy soulful serpentine prince that later captures your avian heart. Your wings just haven't grown in yet.

5. Reread your favorite parts

Like that will somehow make everything better.

6. Sulk.

Because it was even better than before and knowing that there is no more beyond a certain point really, really, sucks!

7. Try to shake out of your funk by finding a new book.

Only this doesn't work because you are still obsessing hard.

8. Finish the grieving process in the next hour.

9. Explain to people that you have not lost your mind.

You just finished reading the best thing that has ever happened to you.

10. Get over it.

JK, no you don't.

11. Accept the end.

Because you have work in an hour.

12. Tell every person you have ever met about the amazingness that is your book.

For the rest of the week... maybe year.

13. Reread EVERYTHING.

I have adult responsibilities? Eh, rather read again this for the billionth time.

14. Find a new book.

Because you simply can't stop reading - it's a drug. You need a book fix and you know if you keep rereading that book you'll slowly go insane if you haven't already. And just as you longingly browse the internet or library for a book you know will never top this one, you find one that's a-okay. You read the first chapter and slowly sink into the oblivion where imaginations run wild and begin your "brand new life". Who wants to be an avain princess when you can kick ass and control people at will while falling madly in love with the one man you can't get in real life?
