Okay, what's that word that means that something (like a book or movie) grabs your interest/attention from the very beginning? Kind of like "sucks you in" but it's not that

a... hook?

[mystical_chickn]

No, it's longer than that, like two or three syllables I think.

The irony is that I JUST had this word in my head and I lost it somehow and I can't think of it again! (I hate when that happens.)

engrossed?

[stand_in_line]

captured...

[stand_in_line]

engulfed?

[mystical_chickn]

Not that one, but it'll work for the context I want the word for. (Maybe someone else will eventually know it...)
