Hmm, let me think. Oh yeah, probably yesterday. When I start a book I can not put it down.

I recently reread the newsflesh trilogy followed by Parasite by Mira Grant in four days straight. Not sure if I really finished one a day and started the next the next day but basically the same concept!
I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over.
Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center.

It has actually been at least eight or so months since I've had that happen, but it was The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon. It just kidnapped me and took me along for a ride.
I love LOVE. <3

[[Divergent Series -- Allegiant]] after waiting all that time between books 2 and 3, once Allegiant was released, I got my kids into bed and laid down to read it. I didn't stop until I was finished. Then as soon as I saw how it ended, I regretted it. lol.. I think the last time I read a book in one sitting (before this) was Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the day it was released.

Oh I am a obsessive reader and I am embarrassed to say that most of the time I end doing the sit-and-finish-the-book-in-one-go thing. So yep, the last time was Game of thrones - Dance of Dragons which I read just recently.

Same for me too. I can usually read through my kids books in 1 sitting but not "grown up" books especially with my little ones running all over the place. :D
