Heey fellow readers!
This reader needs some help with finding some shorts books. ADHD needs some instant gratification of finishing a few books after getting stuck in some bigger books.
I do primarily read ficton- dystopian- LGBT- grapich novels- sometimes non fiction.
My last few reads are. When the coffee gets cold- Fourth Wing- Harry Potter (re-reading)- the ballad of songbirds and snake’s- I’m glad my mom died- bloom- heartstopper… And probably forgetting a whole stack.
Ideally I would like some books under +-100 pages (but if you have some normal/bigger books and/or series that you think I might enjoy please also recommend those so I can add them to my TBR)
Thanks fellow readers 💜

Foster by Claire Keegan
I have two:
*A Short Stay in Hell* by Steven Peck
*The Ghost Variations* by Kevin Brockmeier. This one is 100 two-page stories.
it’s kind of a weird one, but i recommend checking out mrs. caliban by rachel ingalls. i think it’s roughly 125 pgs. it’s a surreal little story, and it’s pretty easy to finish the whole thing in a sitting or two
Murderbot series
Death of Ivan Illych,
Of Mice and Men
You can search for novellas
Here are some:
* And Then I Woke Up by Malcolm Devlin. Apocalypse, dystopia.
* The Mimicking of Known Successes by Malka Older. Lesbian detective romance in space.
* To Be Taught If Fortunate or A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers. Both shorter queer sci fi novels.
Fourth Wing?? That’s a long-ass book!
Do you ever do audio at higher speeds? That’s how I get my ADHD brain through books.
“Soul of the Desert” by Adrian Kenraf is a captivating short story you can finish in two hours, and it has a surprising and beautiful ending.
I would recommend the Red Rising series …. They do get a bit long the more you read.
However the first book, “Red Rising”, uses a little different writing style with A LOT of short sentences, which with the fast paced story makes this book a very quick read.
