Queen of Air & Darkness truly felt like it was never going to end!
Hahah! But I did really enjoy it!
That’s an interesting post! I think the longest book I read is The Priory of the Orange Tree. Have you read it?
Ooh that one is huge! I´ve read it, I think it just fell outside of the list haah!
Waah this list really intimidates me! xD The longest books I’ve read got to be Outlander at 800ish pages; I’m currently reading QOAAD but not sure when I’ll finish it yet…
Same hahaah!
Both of those took me so long to read!
Wow, amazing! You’ve read so many long books!
These are very long books! I feel like 500 pages is such a long book and most of these are double that!
Haha that’s why these are the longest, I prefer books shorter then that haaha!
Wow that’s a whole lot of long books.. you have a lot of patience Evelyn
I wish I could read anything more than 500 and actually get through the books I own
It does feel like you’re reading a book for forever sometimes haha
