Anyone else finding the Night Circus insanely engrossing?

[ionicaq]

On 4 separate occasions now, I've missed or almost missed my train stop because I was reading. Last night I headed to the grocery store and thankfully only ended up one stop away, but it was still a bit annoying (I decided to not read on my ride back). I mean, I usually get into books, but not to the point that I forget to get off the train! How

I just got the book a few days ago and I have yet to start it! :(

[ionicaq]

Aw. :( You should start reading ASAP! :D

[tediousandbrief]

Hopefully I can. March is a terrible reading month for me since there is the baksetball tournament and I have a number of teams in both the men's and women's tournaments.

I may try starting it tonight though.

Oooh, OK, that makes sense.

You should certainly try to! Obviously I find the book very engrossing. ;)

I usually read in bed, but I had a lot of trouble putting it down! The world in it is so richly described and full of detail. I had a few issues with the book that I'll save for later discussions, but it being boring or non-engaging was certainly not one of them :)

That's exactly what I mean! Once you start, it's hard to remember what the heck else you're supposed to be doing.

Well, I read the last 220+ pages in less than a day, if that counts. I just couldn't stop.

[ionicaq]

Yup, that counts! :D

Yup! I just started a couple hours ago and I know I'll be done by tomorrow. No way I'm putting this thing down. I'm in love.

It's just SO engrossing. :D I have about 100 pages left, and I'm wishing I still had the longer train rides like I did for Warm Bodies, I'd be long since done if I did.
