Any interesting LONG novels?

Ipsa sola asked:


I’m not much of a romance, science fiction or fantasy fan.(Harry Potter is an exception to the rule lol) I usually like a lot of suspense/murder mysteries, historical fiction and just deep, riveting stories in general.
Please feel free to name some of your favorites!

What all can qualify as science fiction?

>;-;< asked:


I know that very technical stories like one of Jules Verne’s are science fiction, but what about stories of werewolves, etc.

Does this count as science fiction? Does it count as fantasy fiction? Is fantasy fiction a subgroup of science fiction?

Go crazy time machine, faster than light travel, a way to unlock psychic powers…anything you like

At one time going to the moon was thought of as science fiction. What would you like to see if you could choose one thing. Elaborate as much as you like.

What are your thoughts on science fiction?

Captain Carla asked:


I’ve met several people who absolutely despise science fiction writing, but never really say exactly why. I think that some books, like the Foundation trilogy by Asimov and 1984 by George Orwell are absolute works of art. I’m just trying to get some opinions. Whether you do or don’t like it, why? If you do, what’s your favorite book?
