Long Ones .... too much of a good thing, or just right?
Hey! Get your minds out of the gutter. I’m not talking about long ones of those. Although, that’s not a
bad subject for another post. I’ve certainly come across my share of monstrous…er… parts in the M/M genre and wondered. But no, I’m not going there. At least not today.
Today I’m talking about long books (though I’m not averse to offering you a little eye candy while I do-heart-covered boxers on a hunky reader guy, yum!). You know, the big, thick ones (books, people…books!!) that you know’ll take you days, or if you’re a compulsively addicted reader like I am and can’t put down a good book once it’s started, long hours to read and savor. I’ve always liked long books myself, even as a kid. To me they’ve always offered the possibility of juicy and complex plots and characters, and the chance to really lose myself in another world.

She would like the opinions of readers and authors about the size of books and how that relates to the enjoyment of the book. Do you prefer novels? OR, because of time constraints or other reasons such as price, now buy mostly novelettes or short stories? Please log on to the website and comment on this post. Here's the link -
