When I finish a book like that I keep looking through my stacks of books to read and saying to my husband, "I need something to read." He says, what about all those book sitting right there. I say, "Those just are not good enough right now." It is as if I know that whatever I read next will not measure up and am kind of stuck for a day or two. You are certainly not alone!

It amazes me, still, after all these years, that a book can sit on the shelf, I could care less about it, but once I pick it up and dive into it and it's one of THOSE books, I cant put it down, and am sad to finish it. The Mark of the Lion series - I was ready to name a next child Hadassah I loved that character so much! any true book lover will side with you.
