100 Longest Works on the TBR

The juggernauts, the behemoths, the monumentals: the 100 longest reads on my to read list, ranging from a low of 608 pages to a high of 3360. When will I finally take them on? Who knows.
P.S. Chadman, can you go be pathetic on 4Chan or somewhere instead of wasting time for everyone else? That would be a lot more in character for you.
