Animal farm by George Orwell, The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway, Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck. All under 200 pages ? I’ve read them all and enjoyed each of them immensely.

700 Sundays by Billy Crystal, a memoir about his family (183 pages-lol). Humorous but very touching

I read through Agatha Christie’s and then there were none pretty fast and I’m a really slow reader

You don’t mention the genre that you’re looking for, but The Soul of an Octopus is very good (and short ;)). I learned so much about octopuses!

The Uncommon Reader by Alan Bennett. Short and funny (124 pages). The print version is great, but the audio version takes it up a notch because it is read with such humor and perfect timing by the author.
