Top 10 signs I know I love a story

When you've finished a book, do you ever think, "Wow, that was an awesome book?" 

Today I've decided to post a list of the top ten things I experience while reading, or after I have finished a book that are sure signs I loved the story.

1. I read the story while I'm exercising.
2. I continue reading the story after I've finished exercising.
3. It made me laugh.
4. It made me cry.
5. My chest constricts, and I get a lump in my throat when the characters are upset.
6. I'm ready to reach into the book and give certain characters a piece of my mind. If I had a more violent personality, I might just have to hurt them.
7. I never want to put the book or my e-reader down.
8. I take it to bed with me, just in case I'm awake in the middle of the night.
9. I burn meals because I forget about them while reading.
10. When I finish the story, I want more. More from the author, and more about the characters.

So, what do you experience that makes you know you love the story you're reading?
