Craziest things you've done because reading a book, <------ Options

[JustAnotherTeena...]

Ah well...finding a stick[wand] & trying to do spells. Hoping my Hogwarts letter would come...

I've also stayed up quite late reading countless times...actually, I've gone without sleep & read straight through before. I think that was the fifth Harry Potter book.

Uhmm thanks to some books I've had a very dark outlook on life for short periods of time...well, a lot darker than usual at least.

[Joss-eh-lime]

After reading Fahrenheit 451 I began telling everyone how important books were, and kind of making a fool of myself about it.

& While reading Twilight I would literally sit in my room and fantasize about Edward.

[elaboratedream]

After reading the fourth Harry Potter book, I drew a dark mark on my arm and went around pointing a stick at people and shouting "CRUCIO!" and didn't understand why it didn't work...

while actually reading, I've read for days without sleeping, only moving to get a new book, get some coffee, or go to the bathrooom.

but that's mania for you... haha.

I am getting a lightning bolt tattoo behind my ear for Harry Potter.

[silver-rain]

I've stayed up late just to finish the book, especially with the Harry Potter books. After I got my book at midnight, I stayed up all night just to finish it.

[EmoEyelinerx]

Every time I was reading a Harry Potter book I went without eating or sleeping. I wouldent get out of my room, I woudlent talk or even move. I think I even once brought it with me to the bathroom..

[JokeInsideJoke]

only the twilight and harry potter books kept me without food thought.....

but im always up late reading

[letsgoxdisco]

i think only augusten burroughs can make being a complete lush seems glamourous. when i read dry i started to think maybe it would be cool to be him...
but i came to my senses really quickly.

I read this book when I was ten and because of it I tried to be build an underground city in my backyard. I didn't get very far.

[foxx]

When the final HP book came out i stayed up till like 6am reading on my sis's bed she was passed out on the floor i wouldn't eat or anything.
i didnt even get up to pee until the next morning..

OH! i was at one of my friends house in Jeff City, and she was sleeping so i finished my harry potter book. i can't remember which one...uhmm, i know it had this thing about his symbol or whatever it was in the sky. when i stopped, i looked out the window and everybody was running around playing and people walking around and i was like "how could they be out there at a time like this, let alone having fun?" so...i felt pretty stupid. XD

While reading Twilight, I brought the book with me everywhere like a conjoined twin.
I've also been convinced I was a vampire, and when I hugged people I came very, very close to biting their necks just to see if I could enjoy the taste of blood.
Almost.

[RealTalk]

got sad and cynical for a while because of a book..starting thinking human beings are ultimately evil.

I did something similar. I decieded Holden from Catcher in the Rye was my hero so I became severly depressed and nobody was worth my time besides a select group of friends. All my teachers thought I was antisocial and my parents considered taking me to therapy. I'm glad that didn't last.

After reading ender's game...

Wow, I loved that book. I tried to jump off walls while playing laser tag.

[JokeInsideJoke]

i pretened i was a witch after reading harry potter. i was laying on my bed and i was practicing spells and making up my own........

sadly they never worked....

[S-Majere]

I used books as the ultimate escapism as a kid; everything I read became real.

[miyashu]

I would consider this more emotional than crazy...

While reading Stephen King's The Stand, my favorite character died during a heroic act. I bawled like a baby.

[*yrrnotelekktric*]

I half-hoped of finding an egg hidden behind the trees and bushes of my backyard ater reading Eragon. The book never gets old for me.

[livwho]

I shout lumos at light switches hoping the lights come on.

I read AND watched Romeo and Juliet because of the Twilight series.

I used books as the ultimate escapism as a kid; everything I read became real.

That's how it is for me when I read a lot of books.
