Sometimes, it’s comforting to have a handful of thinner books on our TBR pile. As a loose guide, short novels around 200 pages or fewer, novellas are 60 to 120 pages, and short stories average 4,000 words.
Consider this collection my grateful nod to brevity: great novels—all 200 pages or less—that you can consume in one sitting.
