What is the favorite book you read that was the most challenging, interesting and the longest read?
When I was in high school, I picked up a copy of Anna Karenina at the bargin bin. It was actually very entertaining. I preferred the second story about Kitty Schterbitskaya and Konstantine Levin to the main story about Anna. But still, it was a great story.
ANd when I was taking a break from college I was house sitting for a relative. All I had to do was water the plants. They had no TV, so for entertainment I had a copy of Les Miserables. It took a week of reading 350+ pages per day to get through it. Hugo was paid by the word for the book, and he was very discursive. Still, the story was great. I sort of felt sorry for Javert though.
David Copperfield and Oliver Twist just got too darn long. I preferred the Old curiosity Shop
