Basically, I'm going to be spending a lot of time camping this summer, and I want something to read during any downtime. Unfortunately, I'm not normally too much of a bookworm, and as such don't really know where to start in terms of finding good books. I'm pretty much open to any genre, although my favorite would probably be fantasy (I read through a Song of Ice and Fire last summer, to give you context). A few things I'm looking for:
Longer books are preferred. I'm not going to write off shorter books, but I would prefer each book to be able to last me a week or more.
It needs to be available in paperback. Space is at a premium, and I don't want to be lugging around a big hardcover book. Also, ebooks are just not a possibility.
Thank you for your help.
If you want a very interesting series of books to read try the Dark Tower series by Steven King. The first book isn't very long but as they go they get much longer and better. If no one hasn't suggested it yet you should give it a try.
