I'm just baffled at the idea that 300 pages is considered a long book. To me, that seems on the shorter side of average, unless you're reading YA or kidlit.

Ahhhh, those halcyon days before Harry Potter, when 300 pages was considered a lot and nobody thought children would willingly read more...

For me, it was being burned out on all the 400+ page novels I had to read for English classes in college. Nowadays the only way I can get through a book that long is by breaking it up into tiny chunks, preferably during reading in bed to help me fall asleep.

Had the same reaction. Most of the books I read are at least 600 pages, and a fair amount either come close to or cross the 1000 page line.

Same, I sneeze through 300 pages (and if it's a chore reading those 300 pages why would I bother reading the book?)

I probably agree with you, if I could recall just how thick 300 pages is. I do know I borrowed some of my brother's thick sci-fi novels when I was 11 - that was straight from kid's picture books into sci-fi and fantasy bricks.
