Longest Novel You've Ever Read?
What's the longest novel you've ever read?
I'm at right around 550 pages from what I can remember. I'd rather books be longer than shorter. I rarely will touch a book that is less than 300 pages and 400 is my ideal. I prefer books that are 500+ if possible. I did think of asking you to join my little scheme, but somehow I knew, 007's loyalty was always to the mission, never to his friends. ~006

The longest book ive read is Eldest, in the eragon series. I don't have teh book with me, so I can't say the exact amount of pages.
Wiki says 704 pages Eldest - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia I must recommend this series to any fantasy readers.  ¡sʞɔoɹ ɐloxıuI've had enough it's time for something Real, Don't respect the words you're speaking, gone too far! A clone! |

Harry Potter V has 870 pages
Gone with the Wind has more than 1000 pages I have read both more than twice, at least. ETA: The Stand by Stephen King (also more than 1000 pages) Coexisting gracefully with the unresolved. ~ GFisms atreyu, obsessiforge, vegito, echoes, icegoat, maikeru, bananas, smelnick, chaos, and bex have something in common "This too shall pass.

I believe the longest book I've ever read was The Stand, uncut version, by Stephen King. According to Wiki, it's 1168 pages long, but was well worth it, in my opinion.

I've also read the harry potter series, but even better is the dark tower series by stephen king. There's 7, just like in harry potter, but they are much better. I think the biggest book is roughly 700 pages.

I think that both Eragon and Eldest are amazing books. I'll be reading Brisingr soon though and that's 748 pages according to wikipedia, I guess that the rumors that the book was longer than both eragon and Eldest were just wrong. "Ohh! OOOhhh!!!-Oh and again! I made it. I know it. I can't see it but I know I made it. Oh my God I made it. Alright, don't give up. This is for everything. This is when I don't have to do it. This one right here is when I don't have to do it, which leaves nothing else but the one. No I don't think so. Not there. God I wish I could turn the volume-OH **** Aahhh son of a **** I talk too much. ****." - 00vega -

iono probably a couple were more then 1000 but i dont really notice.
one that SEEMed the longest without actually being the longest would be the poisonwood bible.... that book seemed insanely long vous êtes beau quand je suis bourrée When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears, When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears, And I held your hand through all of these years, But you still have, All of me Atreyu- "For neging me for being Neged by Turbo because you're annoyed You got Neged by Ex because you weren't Neged by Turbo" Counting down to til i wont be dating a 19 year old any longer: 36 days 12 hours 58 minutes |

Don't remember how many pages cause I lost the book, but I believe the longest book I've read to be "Mein Kampf" by Adolf Hitler.

Brisingr, 748 (not including some 50 page index) Stephen King's IT was 1150 pages, their abouts. 1984 wasn't long, but the story was so amazing it felt longer WTF did you read a book by hitler? Putting the "fun" in dysfunctional
