Les Miserables 1800pgs, but I loved it i read it 3 times
Hmm, we're on a roll here.
Les Miserables. My edition had about 1400 pages.
Brothers Karamozov - a little under 1000 pages.
War and Peace, about 1300 pages.
The most recent long book I've read is "The Gulag Archipelago" by A. Solzhenitsyn (really interesting).
Some others are "The Brothers Karamazov" (one of my all-time favourites), "War and Peace", "Les miserables" (didn't like it), "Don Quixote".
Mine would have to be All The Pretty Horses By: Cormack McCarthy.
Romance of the three kingdoms, which was 2000 pages.
mine was in 5 books X 350 pgsQuote:

I remember feeling so discouraged when I began Les Miserables. I also remember feeling really accomplished after I finished :D
So far: LOTR.
All you Les Miserables people - I take it it's worth the long read?!?
EP :)
Yes, some of his are as long as War and Peace, I'm sure. They are good for long vacation reading.Quote:

What a great thread for me; a good list of books I don't need to jump into anytime soon ;P~
cheers,

I don't remember how many pages my copy of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell has, but it's a lot. ;) They flew by though as I got into the story.
If I can count all the volumes of A la recherche du temps perdu, then that's the one.
