Emperor of all Maladies - A biography on Cancer. I picked it up after I lost my mom to it to understand this disease better and I found it so interesting, I couldn’t stop.
The Power Broker: Robert Moses and the Fall of New York, Robert A. Caro, 1,296 pages.
harry potter and the order of Phoenix lol
Winter from the lunar chronicles (823 pages!!!)
Rich Man, Poor Man by Irwin Shaw. It took me a year when l read it in school. I was not such a big reader then.
herpetology 4th editionbut just in page count, I probably read something that had more words than it
The Goblet of Fire (734)
House Of Earth And Blood (799 pages)
The Outlander series books, some of them are over 1000 pages.
After I finish the book I’m reading it will be A Day of Fallen Night but currently it’s Lair of Dreams by Libba Bray, with like 600 something pages but the font is REALLY small
The longest I've fully read so far, was a single book including Almeida Garrett's "Viagens na Minha Terra" (Travels in my Homeland) and his collection of folk ballads "Romanceiro" (830 pages).
Rhythm of War by Brandon Sanderson. 1232 pages.
I read the extended edition of the Lord of the Rings with all the appendices in one book
Other than the Bible…A Breath of Snow and Ashes approx 1157 pages.
The protestant BibleOne book To green Angel Tower by Tad Williams
(520,000 words)
It's between books 7, 4, & 5 of the Harry Potter Series. Whichever one is the longest
chain of thorns, it’s about 700+ pages
It by Stephen KingDavid Copperfield by Charles Dickens
It would probably be a Stephen King book.
one of the ASOIAF series, whichever is longest probably
Well, I've read all the ASOIAF books and some of those are 1,000+ but the one book that I was forced to read (thanks AP US History) and felt like it took me forever (took me the entirety of my pre-junior year summer) was Democracy in AmericaWhich, while informative and probably very important to have read, 0/100 would not recommend.
A Little Life, 816 pages. Not that long compared to what everyone else is saying but it's long for me lol
Tough question! I think it was The Priory of the Orange Tree Either that or it's House of Flame and Shadow
Both are pretty darn thick books.
A Court of Silver Flames! That whole series was the longest I’ve read in my adult life!
Probably IT, I think that's over 1000 pages and I remember the audiobook was like 3 days 😅Edit: is Bleakhouse longer? Cuz then that would be it
I have 10 novels that I'll re-read every few years:A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court - Twain
War of the Worlds - Wells
1984 - Orwell
The Moon is A Harsh Mistress - Heinlein
Day of the Jackal - Forsythe
The Andromeda Strain - Crichton
Watership Down - R. Adams
Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency - D. Adams
Iowa Baseball Confederacy - Kineslla
Cold Mountain - Frazier
death’s end, the last of the remembrance of earth’s past trilogy. ~600 pages, for me a 29 hour audiobook. although i guess if we get loose with our definitions of literature, i did read homestuck once. 🫠
War and Peace, which I read right after a semester in college where I read nothing but non-fiction. I finished it in four days.
If I read the whole dictionary does it count?
IT by Stephen King at around over 1,000 pages.
same! my longest one is IT by Stephen King. took me like two months to read lol
Les Miserables - Victor Hugo
One of the volumes of Malazan Book of the Fallen. In fact, the last 4 books of that series were all at least 1200+ pages.
Doctor Sleep by Stephen King 763 pages
