Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy and Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell are a couple of my favorite 400+ books. Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged is also really good.

I love the Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare. Most of them are over 400 pages. They are phenomenal.

A lot of the books I've read are over 400 pages, that seems to be the average of the books I read. This is a difficult question, but for now I'll say The Count of Monte Cristo !
