The City of Lost Souls, which is the fifth book in the shadow hunter series. I started reading it at around 3 in the after noon and didn't put it down until around 9 the next morning.

Deception point and Digital fortress, written by Dan Brown. I would suggest both, they both are great!

Being a mother of three, I don't get the option of reading a book through in one sitting. I don't remember from my teenage years if I did or not. I'm sure I didn't except for small books.

The Blue Nowhere by Jeffery Deaver.
I still remember the tiny space of my room in a boarding house when I challenged myself to read it straight after lunch and yeah, overnight. When I was in college, it felt like I can always do that and read all the books that I want to read by making the night a mere extension of morning, no time to sleep. I miss that ability. Haha!

From the book ( if I remember it correctly);
In the real world you don't get sound effects. You do what you set out to do and there's nothing to commemorate it but a light, silently going dark.

Yesterday, I read Response Journals by Les Parsons. Excellent read for teachers. There were a lot of good ideas for adding journaling as a form of writing development and assessment.

The last book I've read in one sitting is a nonfiction. It's called Answers to the World's Weirdest Questions, Most Persistent Rumors & Unexplained Phenomena.

I've finished reading it within two hours. I had fun and learned something as well. Totally worth to read.

Yesterday I read Beauty Queens by Libba Bray in one go! I loved the first half but was pretty disappointed in the second half and kept going with it just wanting to get it finished.

The seventh Harry Potter book, Deathly Hallows. Looking back, that was way too long ago!
