What is the biggest/longest book that you've read?

The longest book I have read was a four inch tall book in middle school. I can't remember the name of it but it was about this guy and a key and a machine.

I think it was The Lord of the Rings. I also read it in middle school, and it was a giant hardcover.

Most likely it was Don Quixote.

The writing style is kind of dated in Spanish. Unsurprisingly, given the past posts, it was too a high school assignment. One given by the head office, that wanted us all to take the national test, so they made compulsory reading for a contest that was meant to be optional. Every time a teacher couldn't come, we no longer would have that hour free, instead, the principal would come with a box full of books of Quixotes and would leave a prefect keeping guard for the rest of the hour.
Even with that I still keep the book itself in high esteem. I definitely would love to pick it up again and read it without the school pressure. It was good they let us keep the tomes. I hope the books are still in Mexico

The longest book I own is the Order of the Phoenix from the Harry Potter series. However, I've never actually read that. I think the longest book I've read is from the Gone series although that's only around 576 pages.
