- There are books so interesting that I just want to keep reading in the curiosity of what'll happen next. People read for hours in one sitting.
I read Kane and Abel for like 5 hours straight and finished the book in 3 days, nice book if you are looking for a new book.
I wonder which book caused you this and how fast and long were you reading it? Don't forget to mention some crazy stories if you have...
That feeling just hits different.
- Great answer!
You can read books by master story tellers too. Those will never be boring and will be full with twisted facts and interesting relationships. You can start with Crime thrillers, Murder mysteries.
Adding to the above list:
Jeffery Archer and Dan Brown present some very interesting books in the form of "Kane and Abel" and "Angels and Demons".
Another good book that you might find interesting is "Flatland - a romance of many dimensions" by Edwin Abbott.
