Longest Books I've Read
Winter (Lunar Chronicles #4) by Marissa Meyer
Pages: 827
City of Heavenly Fire (The Mortal Instruments #6) by Cassandra Clare
Pages: 726
Gemina (The Illuminae Files #2) by Jay Kristoff and Amie Kaufman
Pages:672
Illuminae (The Illuminae Files #1) by Jay Kristoff and Amie Kaufman
Pages: 608
The Winter King (Weahtermages of Mystral #1) by C.L. Wilson
Pages: 595
All right! Here are some pretty long books! And funny thing is, I gave all of these 4.5 stars or higher. All of these are fantasy/sci fi as well, which doesn't surprise me. With contemporary books, there isn't as much need for world-building like there is in fantasy/sci-fi. All of these books have such an intricate plot, and I love them to bits. I don't know which one is my favorite, though. Winter is the last book in one of my favorite series, The Lunar Chronicles. City of Heavenly Fire is the last book in The Mortal Instruments, which was a series that improved with every book. Gemina is the sequel to Illuminae, and both of those are fantastic and ooze with originality. And The Winter King is the first book in an adult fantasy series. The second book wasn't going to be published, and now it is, and I cannot be happier. Out of all of these, I only own Winter and Illuminae! The rest are definitely on my list to buy!

Longest Books on my TBR!
The Bronze Horseman (Bronze Horseman #1) by Paullina Simons
Pages: 810
A Court of Mist and Fury (ACOTAR #2) by Sarah J. Maas
Pages: 624
So funny thing is, I don't see myself reading these books anytime soon. There are always new books coming out, new things I want to read. I've heard people have issues with both of these books being problematic. To be honest, I think everything can be problematic if we look at it through different lenses, but I have no real push to read either of these. Out of the two, I'm more likely to read ACOMAF, simply because I love Rhys and want to see him and Feyre together.
