I'm like a chocoholic, but for books!

I think I read books like an alcoholic drinks. I start reading a book and I try to down the lot in one go, reading as fast as I can until I pass out. I can't savour each word and appreciate the plot, I have to absorb it all and pass out only waking to half remember the previous night's activities. Not for me closing the book at 11pm to have a safe amount of time to sleep*, no sir. I have to skim over the pages until I get to the end or 3am, whichever comes first.
As a treat for reading this here is a link to a funny Onion article called "I'm like a chocoholic, but for booze!"
*11am might seem ridiculously early to you, but if you're honest, truly honest with yourself, the amount of sleep which makes you feel happy is 9 hours. Not 8, nine. You know it.
