Musing Mondays #1

Musing Mondays is a meme hosted by MizB of shouldbereading.wordpress.com


The question is What is the longest book you have ever read? How long did it take you to read it?

I have to say the longest book I have ever read is Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by JK Rowling. The book is 759 pages long, but it was a fast read regardless of its length. It probably took me three days to read that book, which is actually really fast reading for me. 


The second longest book I've read would be This Present Darkness by Frank Peretti.This book is 507 pages, which doesn't seem like much compared to Harry Potter, but it probably took me a good month to read. Granted, I tried reading this book on top of my school reading, but that usually doesn't slow me down too much. I do happen to be a slow reader though, which certainly didn't help me finish this book any sooner.

    I don't mind reading big books when I can read them on my Nook. That thing makes big books so easy!

      SO true!! Ever since I got my Nook I take it everywhere. Before, I would always make sure I had at least one small book to read that would fit in my purse, but now it doesn't matter. I can take my whole library. It's pretty much the best phenomenon ever.. or close anyway.

    I think it would have to be one of Kate Mosse's books.
