Book Blogger Hop #86, May 31st

The Book Blogger Hop was originally created by Jennifer from Crazy-For-Books in March 2010 and ended on December 31, 2012. With Jennifer's permission, I relaunched the meme on February 15, 2013. Check out the hop here! 

Each week the hop will start on a Friday and end on Thursday. There will be a weekly prompt featuring a book related question. The hop's purpose is to give bloggers a chance to follow other blogs, learn about new books, befriend other bloggers, and receive new followers to your own blog.

The Question of the week is: Do you read books over 400 pages? (submitted by Elizabeth @ Silver's Reviews)

Yeah, I love reading long books. More time to be in the worlds, with the characters! Love that! What about you guys? Happy reading!

    So true! Sometimes I hate to see books I am thoroughly enjoying come to an end. Have a great week!

    I do know what you mean but I have to be honest and say that books with 400+ pages tend to put me off, 200-300 is my average. I'm not a speedy reader and my time is precious. That’s not to say I haven’t read longer books and really enjoyed them because I have, there are at least half a dozen books on my Goodreads 5 star rating shelf that are over 400 pages long.

    I think it helps if there’s enough going on in the plot to keep me engaged, for example, Blade of Darkness by Dianne Duvall was 541 pages long and I absolutely loved it and devoured every page! The same with Monster Hunter International by Larry Correia which is a whopping 735 pages long.

    I suppose the length of a book wont be a consideration when dealing with my favourite authors or those who I've read and enjoyed before but may cause me reluctance for new-to-me authors.

      Yeah, I can understand that. Time is limited. And favourite authors have proven enjoyable so it's less of a rick of a waste of time than new authors, so that makes sense! I love Dianne Duvall's writing, but I haven't heard of the other. I'll have to check it out! Thanks for stopping by! Happy reading!
