What’s a book that was so good you couldn’t put it down and read it all in one sitting or over a weekend?
For me it was “Rebecca” by Daphne DuMaurier. I don’t know why, but I just couldn’t put it down.

Most recently I had that with The Testaments by Margaret Atwood. Christopher and His Kind by Christopher Isherwood is another that I find myself picking up to just browse the start and before I know it I've finished it again.

Gone with the Wind, back when I was a teen. Read it in two days one summer.
More recently, Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman. I got it for Christmas and it is the first book of his that I have read even though I have been meaning to get to him for years now. It snuck up on me, and after a slow start I absolutely loved it.

Excuse my trash bin tastes, but that Barbara Payton biography was a page turner. I could not put it down.

Mark Harris’ Pictures At A Revolution followed by Mike Nichols. This stuff is just right in my wheelhouse and he’s such an excellent writer.

Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia was really fun.
