Come on! We know you want to sing it!

I like big books and I cannot lie
You other readers can't deny
When a book on a shelf has an itty bitty spine
It just wont make you pine
Unless it's fat, then you'll pull out your purse
Cause you notice those big books first


Duration: You set the pace!


Read fat books! Books over 450 pages. Paper, ebooks and audio are O.K. For audiobooks, use default edition for page count or books over 12 hours.


✦ Three cheers = 3 books
✦Take 5 = 5 books
✦Behind the 8 ball: = 8 books
✦ Bakers dozen: = 13 books
✦Catch 22: = 22 books
✦Forty winks = 40 books
✦Fifty-fifty: = 50 books


Example:
Renegades (Renegades, #1) by Marissa Meyer default edition-556 pages , audio 16 hours and 58 minutes

Note:
In 2014 we started this challenge, and we've now decided to start a new thread for the challenge to freshen it up a bit! You can find the old thread HERE

Agnieszka (agnieszka7) | 222 comments Looks like you missed my queston, so I re-posted it and deleted my previous one :-)

If I read an entire book set/anthology within this year would it count against this challenge or do only single 450+ pages books count?

e.g. I read in January Hide and Seek & Christmas Cover-Up books 1 & 2 of the Family Reunions Complete Collection: Hide and Seek\Christmas Cover-Up\Her Stolen Past and plan to read book 3 Her Stolen Past in April or May.
The first book is 235 the other two 224 pages long, all in all 683 pages

Thank you! No worries I don't expect you mods to constantly check the many treads and have the tabs with my questions as long open as it takes.
That're great news :-)
