Happy Tuesday &
Welcome to my first Top Ten Tuesday post!
I’ve been meaning to take part in a TTT it for a while now, but somehow never got around to it?
This week’s topic is all about the longest books we’ve read in our reading careers so far (yes, reading books is a career, and we get paid in the form of happiness, joy, pain, heartbreak, and a multitude of other emotions), and I’m so excited to share mine with you!
I’m only including one book per series, because otherwise, 50% of this list would probably consist of Harry Potter.
Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish, and is a weekly meme now organized by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl.

I absolutely didn’t notice how long Winter is… I only remember having a blast with the story! I also absolutely adored The Secret History and actually wished there were more pages for me to read. ❤

I listened to the audiobook, and I think it was 24 hours long? 🙉 It was fun, though, definitely!
I really enjoyed Donna Tartt’s writing in The Secret History, I’m glad you loved it! ☺️ Have you read any of Donna Tartt’s other books?

Yes, I’ve read all her other books but The Secret History is my fav ❤ The Goldfinch comes a close second, though.

It’s one of the few books I audiobooked! I can only imagine how intimidating it looks as a hardcover. 😄 Have you read it? 🙂

Yes, I’ve read it and I own the paperback. It’s the longest/thickest in the series and the most expensive too, haha.
