Book Coma

The condition we fall into with 'the book we can't put down.' The afflicted can't hear the voices of others and frequently forget to eat and attend to matters of personal hygiene.

I'm sorry I didn't return your calls this weekend. I was in a book coma with the new Harlan Coben book Friday afternoon and I all I did was turn pages. Apologies for the smell, and can I have some of your fries?

I thought she'd need multiple trips to carry her phone, keys, wallet, and Starbucks to her car since she needed the other hand to open the door, but she used her impressive girl grip to carry everything in one hand.
