Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. This week’s topic is ‘ Longest Books You’ve Read’

What bricks have you managed? Happy TTT!
Gone with the Wind is one of the bigger bricks I’ve managed too :)
Wow, I’m impressed that you finished Les Miserables! I’ve never been able to do that.
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.
I believe that Ulysses probably was the most difficult read of the list, isn´t it? Have you enjoyed it?
Uh yes, I remember liking it yes 😊

George likes his big books, doesn’t he? LOL
😂😂😂 Yes he does
A dance with Dragons was on mine too! You have read a lot of really long books! Good Job!
Ulysses languishes on my TBR. Both because of its length and because I’m not sure I’m going to understand it!

Gone with the Wind, War and Peace, and The Stand all made my list as well, and a few of your other bricks are on my TBR.
Hope you have a great week.
Les Mis is SUCH a long book- wow. Assassin’s Quest has quite the page count too- I haven’t read Hobb in a while. And Dance with Dragons- so true. That thing IS a brick!

Oh jeez, was ‘A Dance with Dragons’ really that long? Woah, I hardly remember :D My version of ‘The Stand’ was longer & one of my favourite bricks ever :)

Pretty much everything on your list is longer than any of the books I’ve ever read! I don’t think I’d have the patience for a 1000+ page book.
