definitely "a court of mist and fury" all books from Sarah J. Maas
"shatter me/unravel me/ignite me" from Tahereh Mafi
Steel and Stone Series from Annette Marie
I actually choose often reading instead of sleeping
latest book I fell asleep whilst reading:
"taken at dust" C. C. Hunter ;-)
When I was reading Rot & Ruin by Jonathan Maberry, I loathed sleep not because I was scared... I wanted to read.... one... more... chapter.... XD
Almost every single book that I have chosen but if I had to pick three it would be, the Harry Potter series, Mistborn series, and the Enders Game series. Yes...they are all series.
I actually won't read near bed time any more unless I know I can finish a book and still get to bed at a good hour thanks to the MANY books I stayed up way too late reading!
I was reading Enders Game right around when the movie came out at the same time as a friend. He stayed up until 2am finishing it, but since I had work in the morning I was good and went to bed at a normal time without finishing it. I was so mad that he got to the end before me I wanted to cry! haha. He thought I was mad he finished it in general, but really I was just mad that he was able to stay up and read it while I had to be an "adult" and get sleep! haha

The Sisters Grimm! I've been putting off reading that for so long for some unknown reason. Do you think it's worth the read?
Pride and Prejudice, all the way!
A Thousand Pieces of You is the most recent. I read most of it in one day. I couldn't put it down! Still need to read the sequel, but kind of wanting to wait until the third book is released then read the trilogy as one
This just happened to me last night. I was planning on sleeping at 9 PM but ended up reading the first 5 chapters of Robyn Carr's One Wish. I was not ready to put it down but I had to work today.
There are definitely not a lot of books I stayed up for. I need my beauty sleep :P The most receint one was A Court of Mist and Fury I stayed up the night before my exam, which was probably a stupid idea but so worth it

That is so true.That usually means I'm up till about 11pm every night. The Sisters Grimm series is good but I can't find any copies anywhere. :(
The Watchmaker of Filligree St, I literally had major exams in a week and there I was staying up until 2 or 3am because I couldn't put this damned book down. Fantastic read. Also The Phantom of the Opera, if you liked the movie then be prepared to have the socks knocked off you with the book.
Every summer I reread the Harry Potter series and I would finish them all within a day. Last time I was reading Deathly Hallows and I didn't realize what time it was until the sun peaked back up in the morning! I had spent the whole night reading it and finally fell asleep at 8 am when I finally finished it! I didn't regret it at all even though I had to get up 2 hours later to go to work.
For me, any book that I read that I really enjoy MUST be finished before I can sleep. I remember when I first got the Perfect Chemistry trilogy. I started reading in the late evening, finished all three and then reread them all twice before I could go to bed, simply because I loved them so much.

The whole Mortal Instruments series I would read one everyday and I just couldn't put them down and I would stay up all night until I finished
Most of them!!! :D but recently as in I'm not sleeping tonight will be Wild Awake by Hilary T. Smith
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children series! They were so good I couldn't put them down and by the time I finished the last book it was 3AM! Also The Book Thief kept me up until about 1AM.
I stayed up until 2am reading Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix. Then i almost threw the book across the room.
But mainly Harry Potter. Literly almost couldnt put it down.
