Angels & Demons
Honestly? The Illuminatus! Trilogy. Its about 800-900 pages if I remember correctly. Usually read books between 300-500. I don't go out of my to not read longer books, just what I can get my hands on sooner.

My twisted world by Elliot roger is the longest book for a big boy like me.
Harry Potter
>>8108918
Proust

Cryptonomicon. What a slog.
The miserables or LotR if you consider it as a whole book
1050 pagesmy parents forced me to read it
I spend a stupid amount of time reading long fanfictions, which are roughly 100 000-300 000 words apiece.
>>8111641
...why would you even admit to that?
>>8111641
I once read ateen titansfanfic that clocked in at 280,000, when I realized that was longer than Ulysses I had a bit of an existential crisis.
>>8111648
I mean, sure, there's a lot of garbage out there. But once you get into the larger tombs, there can be insightful stories, delving deep into a character's personality and even obscure literature references.
Infinite Jest, which according to my calibre library is my 9th largest book, locking in at a whopping 560,000 words.

AR tests in 12th grade? Was this the 90s or something, you old fuck?
>>8108918
still reading it...
A single work? Don Quijote (inb4 two parts)
A series? Either the Dark Tower or this preteen saga I read a while back called Pendragon.
>>8108918
my dick if my dick was a book lmao
Either the complete New Oxford Annotated Bible or The Rosy Crucifixion by Henry Miller (about 1600 pages).
>>8108918
KJV if you count it as a single book
otherwise atlas shrugged or Capital vol1 (with a long editor's intro and the appendix chapters)
>>8108918
I tried reading Atlas Shrugged, even if I didn't disagree with most of the author says, i's still extremely boring with unlikeable Gary Stu characters, pathetic mustache twirling strawman villains, boring prose, tedious monologues and nonsensical plots, motivations and worldbuilding.
Literally the only reason anyone would like it is that it says things conservatives and libertarians agree with and they don't have any other books to brag about.
Not a single book but I read prousts in search of lost time holy fuck that was long.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
