Bookworm?

Jaren informed me that I am a bookworm. When I said "No I am not" he informed me that only a bookworm could read a 600+ page book in less than 48 hours. Then I just laughed and told him that I would have finished a lot sooner if I wasn't so tired that I kept dozing off while reading. Maybe that should have been a sign to stop reading. He also reminded me that I took a break to attend the temple and a couple more to feed my family.

I know; what book was I reading that could pssibly have kept my attention that well? Eclipse, by Stephanie Meyer. It is the third in a series and now I can hardly wait for the next one. I read the first one in less than 24 hours. I started reading the first book Twilight a few times before I finally got far enough into it to get really hooked. Once there I couldn't put it down. The second book New Moon was also very good and I finished it in about 48 hours.

Now I am on the hunt for another good book. Preferably one that is not part of a series. I think I would like a book that tells the story from start to finish in just one book. Any suggestions?

I read "Twilight" in a couple of days, too, but so far don't have the desire to read the next two. I really liked "Memoirs of a Geisha", "Escape", and "Snow Flower and the Secret Fan"-just a few off the top of my head. P.S.-Welcome back to the blogging world! :)

Sorry, it was Eclipse I read, not Twilight.
