I get so wrapped up in books that I enjoy that I have a tendency to read them too fast and finish them before I realize that I've done it. Especially with characters or a story that I am familiar with. I empathize with the characters. I feel their joy and pain. I laugh with them and cry with them. I enjoy every minute of it and when it's over, I feel a void that isn't easily filled.
It was like that reading Deadlocked. I have seen the world through the eyes of Sookie Stackhouse through 12 books now. I have to say that the plot of this book was well written. It was starting to become easy in the past to guess the antagonist and the plot twists, but not in this one. I was surprised at the end, which was nice. When I rated the book on Shelfari, I only gave it 4 out of 5 stars because I think I can see what the author is coming to in wrapping this series up and if it is what I think, I'm not thrilled. I won't spoil it for those of you who may not have read this book or even this series yet, but know that I am a little unhappy with where I think it's going. I won't be mad or anything if it does, but it won't end the way I want it to (as if that matters)!
I think I am officially addicted to running. I know I blogged earlier, as well as told myself earlier, that I would only run once this week due to the 5k being on Saturday and that day is Wednesday. However, I am chomping at the bit to go and run. Wednesday can't get here soon enough!

I'm catching up slowly on the books. I know what you mean about getting caught up in the stories. It is so cool that you like running so much. Maybe your passion will be contagious:)
