And if I can't download it, then I won't be spending much time at that site. I have to be on the computer for work most of the time, so reading for fun on the computer isn't.

For fictionpress, there's a plug-in for Calibre (FFDL) that converts them to ebook format. There are plenty of novel length fiction available (both original and fanfic). I've read a few that are longer than Les Miserables.
I don't have a GoodReads account and I don't really feel the need to join a reading challenge so I voted no. I read what I feel like reading when I feel like it. Creating some kind of goal would probably result in me reading less rather than more. For me, it'll feel like I'm forced to read and would take away part of the fun out of reading. If I were so inclined though, I'd probably have some kind of minimum length for it to count (probably 60,000 words or something).
