I know what you feel I am waiting for the 8th season of a detective series I watch and the waiting seems horribly long.

@lady1993 No, it's a Canadian series "Murdoch's Mysteries", I like to watch the French version, I am waiting. For the moment I have the first 7 seasons, 96 episodes in all.

I always stay up late reading a book. I'm ready the door to december by Dean Koontz and it's very good that i just can never put it down but I force myself too at times.

I read the plot a bit... and it seems to be a mystery/thriller book it's realy hard to put those kinds of books down once you've started

@lady1993,Thrice I got the opportunity of reading great books and could not shut it until I reached the end.One was a book on wildlife.It was in my mother tongue Hindi.The other was 'Freedom At Midnight'by Dominique Lapeare and Larry Collins.It was a story of the days right before India got independence.The third one was in Hindi.It was about India's first struggle for freedom in 1857.

I can understand it. When I was young, I often stayed up to read books. I enjoyed reading science fiction books. I would feel guilty to stay up late because of reading. After all, I was just a student at that time and I had to go to school next day.

That's a great compliment to the author. I'm writing a book series and am in the last book that I hope to have published next year.
