@j.n.cahill10865 жыл бұрын
My longest is probably one of the bigger Stephen King's--but not sure which that would be. I can't remember if Under the Dome or The Stand (UnCut) is longer but both were over a thousand pages. I'm thinking probably the uncut of The Stand. I don't remember either intimidating me too much back when I read them. Now I worry when a book is over 400 pages lol. Goblet of Fire is probably my 2nd favorite as an adult but I do have really fond memories of that one! Order of the Phoenix has always been my favorite because of Luna and the kids teaming up. Also love to hate Umbridge, hahaha. I'm slowly working my way through The Count of Monte Cristo.
@mybookishdelights47675 жыл бұрын
I’m pretty sure my longest book was the uncut version of The Stand. I know it was over 1000 pages. I don’t think I’ll ever reread that one, but if I do it will be the uncut version which is 800 something pages! 👀

I read The Count of Monte Cristo for the first time in August! It took me the whole month but it was totally worth it. I had watched the movie first, so some things surprised me in the story. If you’re ever looking for another chunky classic Don Quixote is a lot of fun. A bit repetitive in the second half, but it plays a lot with book tropes and the character development is so great
