When I read the Mistborn trilogy, I did not have this problem, probably because it is better paced. Does anyone have any tips for reading longer books?
Perhaps you're just a short story reader? That's my favorite, though I do enjoy a novel now and then, but it's short stories that ring my chimes. I'd suggest you check out some of the anthologies, collections and single stories I've posted at various places in the reading recommendations thread.
