Sleep versus Reading

Like everyone else, I need my sleep.  But throughout my life, something interesting has occurred when I have a really good book.  I can stay up late enthralled with a good book, and very often be rested and relaxed the next day. Especially if this is a well written book, with good plot and just good clean storytelling.  This is not always true, because if I am reading a book with a lot of energy like Ruthless Tide or emotional action A Dangerous Talent, I have too much emotional energy to sleep even after I have finished the book.

But I love the ability to stay up late, reading a good book, and being awake, alert and functional the next day.
