Wednesday Wonderings 4/20/11

Just answer the question in the comments or post the link to your blog post where you copied the question and answered it.

Today’s question: What’s the largest (# of pages) book that you’ve ever read? Did you enjoy it? Collections and multi-volume books don’t count.

My answer:
 
Anna Karenina, coming in at 864 pages. Unfortunately, I did not like the book. I forced myself to finish it because it’s a classic, but I found most of it mind-numbing. I have read reviews of this particular translation that say this translation is just horrible and doesn’t do the text justice, so maybe that was it. Whatever the case, I doubt I’ll be reading it again anytime soon.
