Reading induced procrastination

Does anyone else have this problem? If I am in to a good book, I have SUCH a hard time putting it down to do ANYTHING else. I tell myself I will do something after a chapter...but find myself several pages into the next.

    Yes! However, my major problem is that I read before bed. If it is a really good novel I stay up half the night or all night sometimes.

    This is my issue. I try not to read during the day because I'll have a hard time putting it down to do other things, like making food. So then I read before bed, and I have such a hard time putting it down to go to bed. I've just started going to bed earlier, and I lie on my side instead of sitting up to read. Lying down makes me sleepy. :)
