How big and thick a book is The Keeper of Lost Things?

The trouble with a kindle is you have no physical sense of the length of the story. I felt as though I was reaching the end of the story arc, but then noticed I was only 30% through the book. No idea if I'm just trudging through slowly, or if it's a bloody great thick book and I should settle in for a long ride. This, for me, is why my kindle will never truly be as good a a book.

Anyway, those of you who have read the physical book - is it a big fat Luminaries sized thing? Or a slightly smaller Shantaram sized thing? Or normal sized and I'm just being slow?

Its normal sized!

According to Amazon it is 320 pages. I didn't find it long at all, as PP says, just a normal book.

Oh!!

Oh, okay then. I must be trudging through it terribly slowly.

Oh dear, and I had thought I was quite enjoying it.

I really liked it, you should savour it rather than racing through it (like I did).

Good advice Chemenger. I'm savouring it, not trudging through it!
