We're participating in the Friday Crazy for Books Blog Hop - hosted by CRAZY FOR BOOKS
Connect to the latest hop here - Hop 8-19 to 8-22 on Crazy for Books
This week's question is
“What’s the LONGEST book you’ve ever read?”
(Note: There's one caveat on this question. You aren’t allowed to say the Bible, Torah, Qur’an, or other religious/spiritual text.)
Our answers - - -
Jenn - I think the longest book I read was Incubus Dreams (hamilton) or Acheron (kenyon) or Breaking Dawn (meyer) they are all very long, Breaking Dawn being the longest of the 3 - and they are all well worth it!
Amy - well I've also read Breaking Dawn and Incubus Dreams so those are definitely some of the longest books
So now - leave us your comments - follow over to the right - and then go over to Crazy for Books and visit some of the other great BOOK blogs :) :)
Have fun and remember any comments enter you in our blog-iversary contest also :) see the post here
Welcome to our blog!
Amy and Jennifer ARE Seduced by Books. We’re both in our 30’s, moms, close friends, work together, and share many of the same interests including our love of reading. Amy grew up in Maryland and has been obsessed with Vampires for as long as she can remember. Jenn grew up in Florida and loves the furry, the fey, and the fangs, in that order. Currently we are both in Orlando, FL. When we can be pulled away from books, Amy loves to bake and Jenn loves to take pictures and scrap.
We decided to create a place where we could direct friends, and acquaintances for, book suggestions/recommendations (Jenn’s been known to talk to strangers on the train while traveling in NYC). Once we started out with a simple page, we evolved from there. Now we are sharing our book reviews, fun comments, recipes, and giveaways. We try to give reviews on new releases, pre-releases, and oldies but goodies that we read, or are reading. We’re going to be adding author interviews for established and up and coming authors soon.

ReplyDeleteI didn't even think of Acheron! I had the hardcover, but it suffered an unfortunate accident and was replaced with the paperback [muuuchhhhhh smaller!]. I do remember the hardcover was a hugemongous book though! Great choice! Dark-Hunter pride! :D

ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog! Breaking Dawn was certainly a goodie - I'd forgotten all about that one, well how long it was anyway! I'm eagerly awaiting the new movie. That was a series I just couldn't put down!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hopping by my blog! I never did get far enough in the Twilight series to get to Breaking Dawn, so it didn't realize it was a long book.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Hi
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Book'd Out earlier. I devoured the Twilight books so quickly I didn't even consider them as lengthy, LOl.
