I'm about 40% through The Stand (the unabridged version) now.
I'm supposedly on a diet, but I am having a hard time because my favorite time to read is late at night right before going to sleep, which, unfortunately, is also my favorite time to snack. So the munchies are already set to rear up late at night just out of habit. The fact that all the characters in the book are always eating or looking for food, and what they are eating is often described, makes it that much harder to not think about food.
