This week’s topic: quick reads! I’ll be quite honest…I had to do some research on this. I don’t know that I’ve ever read a book in a day, but that’s just because I usually don’t have enough free time in a day to do that much reading. But according to “the Google”, these are quick reads. I’m only listing those that I have read, or that I’m interested in.
1. Of Mice and Men
(read in school; re-read 2 years ago) – 107 pages; It was good but I was mad at the ending!
2. Home
(want to read) – 160 pages
3. We Have Always Lived in the Castle
(want to read) – 160 pages
4. Love Poems for the Office
(want to read; sounds hilarious) – 112 pages
5. Subpar Parks
(sounds entertaining) – 224 pages
6. Before The Coffee Gets Cold
(want to read) – 213 pages
7. Normal People
This has 288 pages but is labeled as a “quick read”. It must be good!
8. The Pearl
(read in school) – 96 pages
9. Old Man and the Sea
(read in school) – 96 pages
10. Reading People: How Seeing the World Through the Lens of Personality Changes Everything
(want to read) – 224 pages

The ending of Of Mice and Men made me mad, too!
Here is my Top Ten Tuesday post.
It should have/could have ended differently!
Steinbeck in general makes me mad, so I don’t blame you about Of Mice and Men.
Before the Coffee Gets Cold is a very sweet (and sometimes sad) story. I hope you enjoy it when you read it!
Happy reading! My TTT: https://bookwyrmknits.com/2024/02/06/top-ten-tuesday-favorite-novellas/
I do agree about Steinbeck.
I just read We Have Always Lived In The Castle a few days ago. I am hoping to read Before The Coffee Gets Cold soon, just waiting on my library hold to come in.
I hope my library has both of these. I need to check and see.
I have not read any of these. Thanks for sharing. Have a great week!
You too!
Reading People sounds intriguing. Happy reading. My TTT https://readwithstefani.com/top-10-short-books/
I thought so too!
I really want to read a quick book to get out of my current reading slump! Thank you for the suggestions.
You’re welcome! Hopefully you will find one you like!
Normal People is so good, I definitely recommend it. And then watch the series, which is really good too.
