| Keep it fast and moving. I don't care as long as there is a lot of white space on the pages. |

I voted moneys worth, but that's not strictly true, I read what takes my fancy what ever its credentials!  |

| I like whatever I find interesting. That can be GOne With the Wind or some silly paperback I picked up at Walgreens. |

It depends on the mood I'm in. Sometimes I want light and fast--total fluff and other times, I want to become so involved in the story, I need a guide to get back to reality. _________________ Carol

| I picked money's worth. Preferably from 450-700 pages, depends on the author and how interesting the story is. A book I'll reread, I want longer, a book I'll enjoy the first time and probably will never read again, closer to the 450. Anything less that 200 takes me forever tor read, because due to the skimpiness I don't feel involved in the story. |

Depends on the book. I have all these Terry Goodkind books and they are so long. I know they are probably good but some are like almost 1000 pages. Someday I will read them along with all the other books here waiting to be read. _________________ Don't cry if you have lost the sun. The tears won't permit you to see the stars. |
