I just finished Gone With The Wind. It is now one of my all time favorite books. It reads fast and is gripping all the way through. It is about 1000 pages!

I wouldn’t really consider Serpent&Dove a big book. It’s half the size of Crescent city in word count (and also the length of the audiobook). I personally don’t like when publishers make these unnecessarily big hardbacks 🤷♀️ For me, if the the book is over 30 hrs or 300 thousand words, that’s a big book.

I just tell myself I'll read a chapter then read another until I'm fed up. I always feel satisfied even if I don't read much. I find I feel more encouraged that way. This applies to all books not just big books.

A couple big book recommendations are The Thousand Name by Django Wexler is a military fantasy and Leviathan Wakes by James S. A. Coery is an epic science fiction space opera. I really enjoyed both of these first books in the series.

If anyone enjoys Thrillers you guys should look into The Circle written by Stephen J Galgon!! I just recently started getting into them and it was such a solid choice

Thanks so much Becca for the ideas of how to read bigger books , the splitting it down into 50 pages at a time is really helping 💜

Love your videos Becca! My favorite big books are The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet by Becky Chambers, Watchers by Dean Koontz, Sleeping Beauties by Stephen and Owen King, and of course the big book YA series: Harry Potter, ACOTAR, Six of Crows, Crescent City, and Heroes of Olympus.

Murakami is always a wild ride, I love Wind-Up, and I’m going to read 1Q84 before year’s end. Read all of Fire and Ice (game of thrones) and I’m about to read the Stormlight Archives series. ❤️

So many of these are ones I need to read (shocker, I know) I ended up DNFing and unhauling Night Film, I think I got to the fever dream aspect but I felt like I was just in over my head and maybe not as advanced or appreciative a reader as I am now!

What do you think of 1Q84? I've been the most interested in that one for a long time but it is rather intimidating 😂

Becca and The Books it is one of his less and most complex work at the same time. It is easier to highlight a plot line for the book, it is easy to say what the book is about, but the symbolism and hidden meaning are among the most complex. The title itself is based on a word-play that makes sense only in Japanese, because the number 9 and Q are written or pronounced in the same way.

I want to read Queen of the Tearling so bad! A friend of mine recommended it to me last year & I’ve been trying to get to it ever since! One of these good old days I will! :) Ahhh, Night Film! I read that because of seeing it on your channel! 😊✨✨ Yes, fever dream is right! 😂😂😂 I actually own The Hazel Wood so every time you compare it to Night Film in the structuring I wonder what I am in for. 😂😂😂 Yeah, I do see what you mean about the last 50 pages. The pursuit of the end did have me on the edge of my seat...but then I could have stood for a better ending. Tho...for how haunting the whole book was, I became okay with it. I say I’m into thrillers (& I am) but I think up until recently I’ve been reading more mysteries because I’m finding that quite a few thrillers have speculative endings. It’s like mysteries tend to wrap up with the who done it & most things are clear by the end...whereas thrillers are more about plot twists & thrills. Mystery/Thriller is still my top fave genre...but I’ve had to learn to be open minded to those endings. In any event, Night Film was a really good to me! I do like her as an author. I enjoyed Neverworld Wake (even tho I gave it 3 stars). I feel like her books are a bit of an adventure & I like that. I want to read more from her. Well, HAPPY FRIDAY, my dear! I hope you have a beautiful day! 🤗✨✨ I love you! 🥰💕💕 Happy Reading! 🤓📚✨

Ahh Becca, thank you for this video! The Beast Player sounds fascinating! I was curious - (I may have missed looking through your videos it if you did this already), but could you do a video about book recommendations that are in a different format/mixed media? You really hooked me on this style when you talked about Book of S and I have been searching for other kinds. I purchased Bats of the Republic, Horrorstör, and The Illuminae Files! I’d love to know of some more if anyone has any recommendations too!

I’m surprised that some of these made the big book category. I feel like most of the books I read are 500-650ish pages and I would probably count a big book as being anything over 800. This is in no way a criticism I’m just interested in what qualifies as a big book to people. I often feel that a book that’s around 350 pages leaves me dissatisfied. I would call that a small book. What are others thoughts on this?!
