I assume there's an upper limit, in terms of heaviness, or construction, or resource costs? I think the limit is about 1,500 pages, simply because that's the biggest book I've ever seen.

Somebody post that picture of a book with as many pages as a person is tall. I don't have it, but it exists. I'm guessing its not readable, but hey.

Yeah, no. Its a picture of a dude standing next to a book.

>>1965676
I dunno what it was. I just remember the picture.

I mean page count, not word count. Atlas Shrugged is extremely long though, yes. It read it (lol) in about 3 weeks.

Nah, it was probably some random picture that I'll never see again. It was like >>1965682 except a whole lot taller.
