Recs if you like The Bookshop...

short books around 200 pages or less that you can easily read in one sitting! for those who just want a quick read or those trying to hit their reading goals ! i tried to include a variety of genres including lit fic, fantasy, sci-fi, horror, thriller, etc.

For people who are interested in a long-term challenge to read all of the Booker Prize longlisted books, but before 2001 there were only shortlisted books so I am going to separate these into two different lists. Please see the pinned comment for the 2001+ companion list link and the winners for each year!

I see a few lists on here with this theme, but they were short themselves - and I was looking for a more diverse selection. So, thought I'd make my own list and share it! Nice for reading goals, but mostly, I like breaking up the rhythm if I'm reading something exceptionally long.

Keeping up with the 700+ books featured on Overdue since 2013

Every book shortlisted for the Booker Prize since it was founded in 1969, under its current title and previous names, the Man Booker Prize and the Booker Prize for Fiction. I want to hear your percentage overlap in the comments!

A subgenre where books are based around forming, upgrading, or running a business. A lot of the time the book has a set of side quests to update their store/business. Up for recs!
