Last week I re-shared an older post about LONG BOOKS thinking about all the extra time many of us have right now. For some this might be the perfect time to take on one of those chunkers, bur I know for me it would be difficult. My mind is all over the place, and from what I hear, a lot of you are experiencing that sort of “quarantine restlessness,” too. But, we still want to read, right? The solution? Shorter books! It can be difficult to find slim books with great stories, but there are many out there. Included here are ten shorter books that I highly recommended back in 2017 when I originally shared this list and that I still stand behind today. Each could be read in a single day, and even better because they’re all a little older you can likely get them on Libby, OverDrive or your local library’s electronic system.
When considering books that might be read in a single day I set 250 pages in the hardback edition as my max (and was almost successful). I found a little something for everyone and have divided my books into three genres. I hope readers short on time, but high on interest, will find something to love among these quick reads!…
