5 Favs under 500 Pages

Around this time for the last few years I’ve been posting 5 of my favourite books over 500 pages but I’ve found this year I’ve been drawn to a lot more shorter books and novellas. So I figured why not post 5 of my favourite shorter books that I would highly recommend to you all:

Black Sheep by Rachel Harrison – 289 pages

This book was gripping, shocking, fun and entertaining!

Sugar by Mia Ballard – 261 pages

I was on the edge of my seat throughout the course of this book! 

Rest Stop by Nat Cassidy – 160 pages

I really enjoyed the gradual buildup of tension and anticipation throughout the story.

Guillotine by Delilah S. Dawson – 208 pages

I almost wish that I didn’t read the synopsis and was just surprised by what was going to happen because this was just so well done.

Bloom by Delilah S. Dawson – 203 pages

I like the fact that this book elicited so many emotions from me. It starts off so unassuming and quite cute so I was a unprepared for the wild ride that was about to ensue.

5 Quotes from Last 5 Books

These are five of my favourite quotes from the last five books that I have read!!

Rest Stop by Nat Cassidy

“Trauma’s trauma, but I think some people are still just born assholes.”

Sugar by Mia Ballard

“no longer feel the need to dim my own light to match his dull glow.”

Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix

“You can’t beg the world to do what you want. You can’t ask it nicely. You must force the world. You must bend it to your will.”

Ankle Snatcher by Grady Hendrix

They live in our closets and under our beds, and after dark they come out when we break the rules. We’re serving time for the boogeymen’s crimes.”

In Bloom by Paul Tremblay

“There are always truths submerged within stories, and her job is, if not to dredge them up, then to invite readers onto her own chartered boat, guiding them so that they may uncover those truths from the murky waters for themselves.”
