Longest book I have ever read is The Wise Man's Fear by Patrick Rothfuss. It is just shy of 1000 pages but it was so brilliantly written that I flew through it.

I think the longest I've ever read was Les Miserables at something like 1400 pages. The wheel of time was also a really long read. Though each book was only something like 600-1000 pages long, there were 14 of them in the series haha

Gone With The Wind is probably the longest. I have read a lot of the Bible, not all though. I am working on that still. :)

The longest book I've read was 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami. My edition was 1,157 pages long. I read it in just a few days, shockingly enough, but Murakami has a weird hold over me. A friend of mine has been trying their hardest to get me to read Infinite Jest, but even just picking it up off the shelf is exhausting.

The longest books I have read is Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling but I enjoyed reading it so much it did not feel very long at all. The book I read that felt the longest was Insomnia by Stephen King.

A Storm of Swords in A game of thrones series. I believe it's 992 pages. I really love reading the series and also like the TV show. Even though it is hard to keep track of all the families in the series, I think reading the books before watching the show really helped!
