The Silmarillion by J.R.R. Tolkein because there’s no fucking way in hell I will ever finish that shit
Don’t you put that curse on me. I still have books in my to-read pile from five years ago.
The count of Monte Christo
Long enough that by the time you were finished, you could return to the beginning and not get bored.
Alternatively, since it is so serialized, you could read individual chapters/sections and have a satisfying story conclusion. But nothing compares to the way all of the arcs come together for the final conclusion.
Probably The Lord of the Rings. I read the entire thing almost ten years ago, and only remember bits and pieces. It’s so long that I could definitely read it multiple times and still learn new information every time I read it.
Agreed, but that is three books. If one book was a strict requirement, I would go for silmarillion.
Nonsense, LOTR has been sold as a single volume for a long time now. I have the 50th anniversary edition, which is a single physical book.
I’d rather die.
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy; the five-part trilogy if that can count, but even if I was just stuck with the first one it’d be worth it.
I have the “Triology” as an old omnibus that I bought second hand. It’s huge and very unpractical to read, but it does have all 5 parts in one book.
I’d take that or Steven Kings The Dark Tower series which I actually have as one long epub file that contains the complete series. That counts as one book too, right?
I just need as much as possible to read.
Isn’t there a 6th finished by his son?
The Salmon of Doubt, wasn’t it?
Wow. I read the 5 books several times and had no idea about a 6th book.
But you are somewhat right. As Wikipedia tells me, Eoin Colfer of Artemis Fowl fame wrote another one with the widows permission.
I’m on book 4 right now and i already have the urge to start over again.
Infinite Jest because I started it months ago and I’m not even close to a quarter of the way through.
damn footnotes
Dictionary, because I have a compulsion to look up any word I don’t know when reading and I’ll presumably continue reading non-books.
That copy of One Piece that contains all the manga in one piece

Either the SAS survival handbook because it’d be one of the most useful books to have completely memorized, or maybe the Bible just to dunk on fundamentalists by quoting obscure passages that contradict each other.
Neither sounds super fun, but those are the first that come to mind.
“The Winds of Winter” because that’d mean he fucking finished it.
I think I’d just be sad if I could only read 1 book forever.
Probably have to go with the suggestion of Wikipedia.
