Wayward children series by Seanan McGuire
Diana Gabaldon’s Lord John Grey series are all novella length, much shorter than her Outlander novels! If you like romances Colleen McCullough’s The Ladies of Missalonghi is great as are Marion Chesney’s (her mysteries are written under M. C. Beaton) regency romances. They are so short as to be almost novellas written in six book series, with almost an Upstairs, Downstairs vibe. One of my favorite shirt classics is Around the World in Eighty Days.
I own the first Marion Chesney one and forgot all about it! Ha! Thanks! ?
The Five People You Meet in Heaven —Mitch Albom
Of Mice and Man, Forest foxes and another disturbing stories (I don’t know if it also has an english version)- it’s a collection of short stories by Finnish autors
The wayward children series!! All under or just 200 pages, but it works so well for the story ❤️
All my friends are super hero’s and the tiny wife both by Andrew Kaufman ?? Really funny but beautiful tales.
And last but not least is The Perks of Being a Wallflower. That’s my absolute favourite book ☺️
