The Satisfaction of a Binge Read

July 11, 2016 by Jennifer

page turner

Binging on TV is something that everyone is familiar with these days, but do you still binge on books?

I had one of those days last weekend. I started a new book after lunch, lounging by my pool. I didn’t have much on my calendar, so even once the heat drove me inside my house, I kept reading. I finished the book by Sunday, and I would have finished it Friday night or Saturday night, except for the fact that I had company in town, and while we were waiting for them to arrive Friday night, my 12-year-old son wanted to watch movies. When your tween wants to spend time with you, you put down your book, no matter how much of a page-turner it is!

Read my entire post at 5 Minutes for Mom which includes the HOW, WHEN, and WHY and WHAT of binge-reading.
