Les Miserables (I'm surprised that's not on here yet!).
by Victor Hugo.

Took me two months - not too long but it's 2000 some pages.

I dont study novels. i've got self belief that novels are a waste of time. i'm actually too snobby for novel examining. If i pass to place aside time to study a protracted e book, its going to an academic non fictional e book. I hate fiction. I constantly experience like i'm dropping time while i could be examining a e book which could help me advance my business enterprise operations or maybe learn a clean skill like pottery or something. something yet fiction. the maximum up-to-date enormous e book i study replaced into my 6th grade math e book (from back while i replaced right into a newborn) that i present in my sisters bookshelf. I study it from hide to cover and couldnt have self belief how uncomplicated it replaced into. "this regarded like rocket technology back then". It replaced into alot of pages yet with extra effective than customary textual content fabric. quite the final enormous e book i've got study.

War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy. Well over 1 500 pages. It was worth the read though. It took me a little more than a week, but I really got into it, so that's many hours of actual reading.

Mine was The Stand by Stephen King. Awesome book. Especially interesting to read with the theory of the Bird Flu possibly becoming a human pandemic. I believe I read it in 4 days. It was a non stop good book when you let your imagination run with it and what could happen.

Probably one of Robert Jordan's novels in the wheels of time series. I think it was somewhere over 1,000 pages and took me a good 3 days of doing nothing but reading to finish.

War and Peace, Leo Tolstoy.
It took me about a week.

Doctor Zhivago, Boris Pasternak
Less than a week.

Gone With the Wind, Margaret Mitchel.
About a week again.

And lastly, The Bible.

Lonesome Dove by McMurtry is over 900 pages and I enjoyed each one of them. It took a surprisingly short time to read it because it was so well written that the pages kept turning by themselves.

Stand aside Moby Dick, THIS is the greatest American novel. Give it a try...
