Exactly how I feel. I'm interested in Ken Follet's new novel "Fall of Giants" but it's like, 1100 pages. I don't think I'd have the patience to spend 2-3 weeks reading it. Maybe around Christmas Vacation I might get through it (College Student in Final year, so only time I get is around the holidays).
