A Dance With Dragons, insanely long book but very good
What's the longest book you've ever read? How many pages?

Lonesome Dove. Like 1000 pages
Reclaiming history by Vincent bugliosi was something like 2600 pages 
He was still adding material but the publishers were running out of trees
So 1600 of it is hard cover and the other 1000 is on a Cd-Rom
People found it too long , so he "summarized" things and later published four days in november (abridged)
This "quick" version was a mere 688 pages which was criticized for glossing over too many details and being too light
And he always wrote his books long hand - to be transcribed by a faithful assistant
There were pictures of him sitting there with a legal pad.. Like 'okay, lets stsrt at the beginning.. Second draft, Chapter 1!"

500 wtf are you reading...If I read an ebook my monitor I can finish it in roughly in a 1 1/2 day. But with my phone it takes 2-3 days.
The hardest part is that I struggle with consistency.
I've been working on smashing 5-7 books a month.
I know someone will top this by saying they read 30 books, with 500+ pages, a month.

A little bit of everything fiction and nonfiction. I haven't worked in months and wont for a few more years so I see this as an opportunity to catch up on reading I was too busy for. I read faster on my kindle, dont even try on my phone. I use the kindle sporadically but I love having the feel of a book in my hand and it helps expand my library if I buy the books.

Can someone link me a really good and ongoing book thread on here?

Don Quixote
Roots
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
The Girl Who Played with Fire
The Betrayal
I only went there for Don Quixote
