Lately I feel like I rarely have enough time to take three deep breaths in a row, much less sit down to read a magazine or book. And yet, I’ve been craving a really good read. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to really dive into a book and not want to put it down, and the last few I’ve started reading just haven’t really grabbed me. I’m needing one of THOSE books. You know the kind I’m talking about, right?

The kind of book that makes it totally OK to be bleary-eyed and coffee-dependent in the morning because it was SO worth it to read just a few more chapters before going to sleep.

The kind of book that makes you struggle with the urge to hurry and read the end because the story line has you hanging on every word, and at the same time you never want to reach the end because that means it’s over.

The kind of book that makes you wish red lights were longer so that you could squeeze in one more page on the way to work.

The kind of book that makes you feel like you’ve known the characters your whole life.

The kind of book that has you laughing out loud one minute, and fighting back tears the next.

The kind of book that stays with you for a lifetime.

So, help a girl out! Let me know in the comments what THOSE books have been for you!  (You never know, you could see a future blog post gushing about the book you recommended!)
