What's the word for the experience of getting completely absorbed in the reading experience?

Pleasure reading, when the world around you disappears and you are totally involved in the experience of the words.... there's a word for that -- what is it?

Update:

It's a specific word refering to the reading experience... not a generalized word about being absorbed in something.

Update 2:

OK... I found it. Ludic reading.
