That’s what I installed on my old iPod classic, just in case the system collapses.

The Silmarillion by J.R.R. Tolkein because there’s no fucking way in hell I will ever finish that shit
Probably The Lord of the Rings. I read the entire thing almost ten years ago, and only remember bits and pieces. It’s so long that I could definitely read it multiple times and still learn new information every time I read it.
Agreed, but that is three books. If one book was a strict requirement, I would go for silmarillion.
Nonsense, LOTR has been sold as a single volume for a long time now. I have the 50th anniversary edition, which is a single physical book.
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy; the five-part trilogy if that can count, but even if I was just stuck with the first one it’d be worth it.
I have the “Triology” as an old omnibus that I bought second hand. It’s huge and very unpractical to read, but it does have all 5 parts in one book.
I’d take that or Steven Kings The Dark Tower series which I actually have as one long epub file that contains the complete series. That counts as one book too, right?
I just need as much as possible to read.
Isn’t there a 6th finished by his son?
Wow. I read the 5 books several times and had no idea about a 6th book.
But you are somewhat right. As Wikipedia tells me, Eoin Colfer of Artemis Fowl fame wrote another one with the widows permission.
Either the SAS survival handbook because it’d be one of the most useful books to have completely memorized, or maybe the Bible just to dunk on fundamentalists by quoting obscure passages that contradict each other.
Neither sounds super fun, but those are the first that come to mind.
I think I’d just be sad if I could only read 1 book forever.
Probably have to go with the suggestion of Wikipedia.
The count of Monte Christo
That sounds miserable. I read triple digit new books a year and reread a few series at least annually.
I’d rather die.
My scripture. Might as well.
At least someone will read it.
The Complete Fuzzy - Never gets old!

The Martian
If I had to pick just one book, it’d be “The Haunting of Hill House” by Shirley Jackson. It’s perfect for soft horror fans and really pulls you into its eerie atmosphere every time. Always a great read!
Dictionary, because I have a compulsion to look up any word I don’t know when reading and I’ll presumably continue reading non-books.
“The Winds of Winter” because that’d mean he fucking finished it.
