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!

Thanks :) And thanks for stopping by! Happy reading!
DeleteSo true! Sometimes I hate to see books I am thoroughly enjoying come to an end. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI know! If you enjoy a book, you almost don't want it to end! Thanks for stopping by! Happy reading!
DeleteI 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.
ReplyDeleteI 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!
