For now I have no hope of achieving this goal 11 months ago

But the more I learn in Swedish, the closer it gets, yet I still think it will be at least a year before I start looking for a nice, Swedish novel to read :)

What counts as a novel? 13 months ago

The definition is thus:

1. a fictitious prose narrative of considerable length and complexity, portraying characters and usually presenting a sequential organization of action and scenes.

But that doesn’t really tell me anything. Is there a rough guideline on amount of pages, as it says a novel is ‘of considerable length’, is that something like 400 pages +?
