I started reading last year, mostly productivity stuff, but now I’m really looking to jump into fiction to unwind after a long week of uni, studying, and work. I need something to help me relax during the weekends without feeling like I’m working.

I’d love some recommendations for books that are short enough to finish in a day but still hit hard and are totally worth it. No specific genre preferences right now. I’m open to whatever. Looking forward to seeing what you guys suggest. Thank you very much in advance.

    Off the top of my head some shorter books:

    Dead Souls by Nikolai Gogol, Less Than Zero by Bret Easton Ellis, Post Office by Charles Bukowski, Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe, Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess, Fathers and Sons by Ivan Turgenev, Peter Pan by J. M. Barrie, The Hammer of God by Arthur C. Clarke.
