New Obesssion

I have always liked to read in my spare time, often getting caught in a series of books yearning for the next book to come out so the story can continue. In the past this has included the Stephanie Plum series, all of the Harry Potter books, and my most recent victim the Twilight books.
I like to think that I am a rational person capable of making good decisions however, I purchased the first book in the series on Friday night and I finished all 586-ish pages by Saturday evening leaving me craving the next book. So Monday night after class I went and purchased the second book in the series, good thing its already been released, and last night I stayed up until midnight ready nearly 300 pages. The only reason I stopped was my cat started meowing and it forced me to look at the clock. I couldn't believe how much time had passed.
Tonight I look forward to diving further into the storyline with the characters I already feel like I know and love! I've decided to pace myself and hopefully I won't need to purchase the third book until Thursday! By the time the movie comes out this weekend I may have ready 3 out of the 4 in less than a week.
I've decided this is a good version of self-indulgence, and a habit I'm not interested in breaking.
