How long are dissertation chapters supposed to be?

Right now my first case study is 70 pages. I'm afraid my advisors will not want to read it because it looks so horribly long.

I'm going to try to cut it down some tomorrow, after I recover from my jagrwatch hangover. But it won't be under 60 pages.

It's super interesting, though, so I'm sure if they give it a chance they will be sucked in.

Their wives will be like "come to dinner" and they will be like "I just can't stop reading this fascinating document."

Oh god.
