I’d say my thickest book is either The Witching Hour by Anne Rice or The Ink Black Heart by Robert Galbraith. The Witching Hour is pretty big and heavy (I’m very aware of this, having once dropped the book on my face when I fell asleep reading one night) but I know The Ink Black Heart is at least 1000 pages and I’m not sure if The Witching Hour beats that or not.

I think Anna Karenina probably wins this contest.
