Top Ten Longest Books I’ve Read
This is both such an easy list and such a time consuming one! I have read many long books, but the time it took to go through the books I have read the last few years consumed a bit of time haha. These are the ones I can remember to the best of my ability, in order from longest to ‘shortest.’
1. The Forgotten War by Howard Sargent at 1074 pages.
2. The Passage by Justin Cronin at 963 pages.
3. The Redemption of Althalus by David Eddings at 913 pages.
4. Outlander by Diana Gabaldon at 850 pages.
5. Inheritance by Christopher Paolini 849 pages.
6. Magician by Raymond E. Feist at 803 pages.
7. A Game Of Thrones by George R.R. Martin at 801 pages.
8. The Shelters of Stone by Jean M. Auel at 800 pages.
9. The Plains of Passge by Jean M. Auel at 784 pages.

Till Next Time. . .
Outlander seems to be a popular choice this week! It’s on my list too.
Wow! You cracked 1000 pages. You must have strong arms. I never realized Outlander was that long. I started it, and DNFed, because the dialect was so tedious to read, but I did think the story was good.
I actually got that book as an ARC so it was an ebook which saved my arms haha the author actually comment on my review and was really lovely.
I’ve had my eye on both Outlander and A Game of Thrones, but the page count is bit intimidating.
Outlander was enjoyable but GoT wasn’t for me.
I love Magician! It’s been so long since I’ve read it, I definitely need to do a reread in the future.
My longest reads: https://thebookdutchesses.com/2018/10/09/ttt-48-longest-books-ive-ever-read/
Outlander is on my list too! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Omg there are some massive beasts here!! Well done you!! I find big books so intimidating haha, but there’s also a huge sense of accomplishment when they’re done?! I think my longest has to be A Dance With Dragons (woah does GRRM know how to write a book that goes on forever)😂
Oh, The Passage is on my TBR. I should really get to it at some point.
Hope you have a great week.
Oh WOW! 1074 pages is massive! Congratulations for finishing.
Those are some seriously long books! I have a couple of David Eddings’ books around here somewhere. One day, I need to read them!
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
I see familiar covers here! 🙂 Outlander is the best, it really is. Love the list! 🙂
Ooooh, I want to read Outlander! I’ve heard so many good things about it, but I mainly just want to watch the show, lol. Wow, though! You’ve read tons of long books!!! I’m reading Way of Kings right now which is pretty much the biggest book that I’ve ever read, so yeah… 😀
Ooh nice ones! Haven’t read any of these but I always knew that Martin had super long books! Thanks for visiting my post today!
A Game of Thrones made my list as well. I haven’t yet read The Passage, but I do want to. I’ve had it on my TBR list for years. Have a great week!
I’ve always been curious about the Inheritance Cycle, but never did get into those books. They look massive.
I love David Eddings but I don’t think I’ve read that one! Going to have to go and look it up.
Gabaldon’s books are huge. And I’ve always been curious about the Auel books- the whole prehistoric or Ice Age thing always seemed fascinating to me. Also, I forgot that Magician was quite large too.
The first two Auel are amazing but do have sliw parts you have to get through. The third is pretty good, skip the fourth, and the last two are ok.
I think this is my first time visiting your blog. I like what I see. I didn’t realize how long the Auel books are. I read them a long time ago so wasn’t thinking about them. Thanks for visiting my blog.
I’d never even heard of The Forgotten War! That’s kind of an intimidating page count… it does sound interesting, though!
Lots of unfamiliar titles here. Great post!
* TTT: Top 10 longest books I’ve read in 2018 🌻❤🌻❤
I don’t think I’ve ever even SEEN a 1000 page book, let alone read one! Long books are so scary to me, I applaud your braveness-ness!!!! You have conquered several!!!
I’ve been meaning to pick up The Inheritance cycle by Christopher Paolini, did you enjoy it??
I did, i have done the series twice now. There are some things with the writing style that took a bit of getting used to but once i did i enjoyed it. I have done a review on the series if you are interested.
The GoT books are the longest I’ve read. I don’t think George RR Martin knows how to be reasonable. Those books are monsters.
I have Auel’s Clan of the Cave Bear sitting on my shelf–I’m really hoping it’s another series I can get into. Looks like you enjoyed it.
It is amazing but therebis a point that is seriously boring and you just have to push through it.
Inheritance made my list too and Outlander… those are both such bricks of books but so good.
