Novels for book clubs are always a great idea in the busier months, like during the holidays or when people travel in the summers.
I also know of some book groups, though none of mine have done this, that always try to pick books with a certain number of pages to make it more accessible to everyone, especially groups full of new moms!
I also think it’s a great idea to read a short book if your group has been a bit stagnant for whatever reason: no one can finish the book or, like I said at the beginning, if you’ve picked up a ton of huge tomes lately and just need don’t dive into something so extensive.

So, I’m always a fan of a short selection from the book club!
That being said:
I think “short” is subjective, but for the purpose of this post I’m defining it as books under 300 pages. I also think that 200 pages of dense sci-fi or something super literary might take me longer to read than 400 pages in other genres, so the number of pages isn’t always a real indicator of whether something will read faster.
So, let’s get down to business: here are some great short reads for book club that will give you a lot to talk about and we hope you all enjoy (or at least enjoy discussing!).
