Hello,

I want a damn good book to get really, really involved in. Something to carry round and keep me company for weeks on end.

Long Books I love are

The Cazalets
The Crimson Petal and The White
Middlesex
Brick Lane
Anna Karenina

Recently I've picked up a few things, but it's like I'm skimming the surface instead of getting properly into them. I have Villa America, which looks promising, but not long enough to be along term companion

Just popping in to recommend the Gormenghast trilogy for dark, weirdly cosy, autumnal atmosphere (and to shamelessly placemark for more ideas! Love a thread like this.) Ooh - also, am planning to read 'The Midnight Folk' this autumn. It's the book that 'The Box of Delights' was the sequel to. I am in an ongoing quest to find the ideal 'Autumn through to Christmas' book. Has to be read under a blanket with a tin of Quality Street ideally.
