Books that consume you...
Have you ever been so wrapped up in a book it consumes you? It is your every thought, every breathe?
I am reading Thoughtless by SC Stephens
And OMG, I cannot get this book out of my head. I guess you could describe it as romantic/trashy. It is about a girl and her boyfriend move across country for his job and end up as roommates with one of his good friends who is in a band and let's just say it gets interesting!
I don’t want to put the book down, it is insane!! Thank goodness there is a 2nd book in the series Effortless or I would be in some serious trouble!
How can a book get inside my head like this?? Its crazzzy!

Re: Books that consume you...
There is a THIRD book!?!?!?!?! You just made my night! LOVED that series!
I have such a love/hate relationships with books that consume my every waking moment. I love that I am so into it. But I hate that I have to put it down to do my more important responsibilites (IE take care of my kids  )

Re: Books that consume you...
SO EXCITED a third book is coming out! I just finished Effortless & felt so sad to see this come to an end.
I have to say - Thoughtless bored me in the beginning. All her blushing was driving me nuts, but then as the story progressed I couldn't put it down. I found myself on vacation reading it in privacy because I was getting too emotional at some points. 
I just started reading her book Collision Course hoping it would have the same results!

I feel the same way about that book. It's hard to tear my eyes away from the book for minute.

Re: Books that consume you...
Did anyone see this on FB?
CANNOT wait for Reckless!!!!
Thank you all for being so patient with me! Finishing Reckless was a bit taxing, but it’s done and has been sent to the publishers for copyediting. I’ve been reminiscing about the characters while I’ve been thinking about what to write next. Just for fun, I started thinking about Anna’s reaction to seeing a photo of Kellan for the first time. Writing out the scene made me laugh, so I thought I would share it with you. This is Anna going through the care package that Kiera sent home in Thoughtless. Caution: Anna is a bit on the crass side, so the f-bombs fall like rain…
Pulling back the cardboard, I looked at the assortment of goodies that my sister had sent from her new home. She was going to school in Washington, and living in sin with her longtime boyfriend, Denny. He was cute, sweet. A little tame for my tastes, but a perfect match for Kiera. I was sure she’d be walking down the aisle any day now. Mom would be thrilled.
Seeing that my sister had included cookies in the care package, I pulled out the box that looked like it had come from a local bakery. The cookies were still soft, heavenly. As I chewed on a chocolate chip one, I flipped through the photo album she’d sent with them. Lots of scenery of Seattle—the Space Needle, some ferries, the university campus, the bar where Kiera was working. I paused on a picture of Kiera and Denny on a pier. My sister and her boyfriend were adorable together. Denny was slight for a guy, just a little bit taller than Kiera really, and he had dark brown hair that blended well with Kiera’s softer shade. With their arms wrapped around each other and huge grins on their rosy cheeks, they were matching bookends of cuteness. It was almost sickening.
I flipped past their picture and just about had an orgasm when I saw the next one. A man with shaggy light brown hair, piercing dark blue eyes, and a smile that screamed sex, was standing right between Kiera and Denny. “Holy mother of God. Who the **** is that?” I lifted the picture so it was right in front of my eyes. It had to be a mirage. No way was I seeing what I was really seeing. Men that attractive didn’t really exist. But the man in the photo didn’t get any less attractive as I brought the picture closer to me. He was real, and he was the hottest person I’d ever seen. And that was saying a lot. I knew some very attractive people.
Was this who Kiera and Denny were rooming with? God, if so, Kiera’s new roommate was gorgeous. No, not just gorgeous….that word wasn’t enough. He was so good looking it was difficult to find a word that fully summed up how hot he was. He was just…edible. And fuckable. ****-edible. I wanted to screw him and lick him, all at the same time. And I wanted him to screw me and lick me, over and over again. Goddamn it! Why didn’t Kiera tell me about this guy? She was seriously breaking our sister code of ethics, the one that says ‘If you come into contact with a hot man, no, a ****-edible man, you will alert said sister of any and all potential for sexual encounters.’ Kiera was in seriously hot water.

I read Collision Course for the same reason. And to be honest, was so disappointed. I liked the story line although I felt it was a bit redundant. But I didn't get the spark, hot, feeling in the book. It was just too sad to get that excited about.
