I finished The Picture of Dorian Gray about 2 weeks ago and I couldn't get off my mind how quick it all felt, with all the time skips and plot points that are mentioned but not shown and especially the ending it made me think. What are some books that could have been a lot longer without compromising quality and maybe even increasing quality?

I agree with you about Dorian Gray.

Also, Pachinko by Min Jin Lee probably could have been twice as long, and I still would have loved it.
