I don't think about length so much when I buy but do when I sit down to read. Sometimes I'm in the mood to take a slow read that may take a couple of days so I pick a book that is 600 pages +. But if I want to read in a day I pick something less than 400 pages.

Some nights before bed I like to read short stories so I always have a few anthologies on hand.
