A Great Way to Get Into Literature

If you're looking to get into reading literature this year, then this might be a great way to go. Here's a good list of books that are under 200 pages. It's always a thrill to finish a book. It's almost like you're leveling up in a video game.

There's something to finishing a good book, somehow you're transported to the author's world, and you feel the same emotions and meanings the author creates. It's a great way to get outside of your own particular drama and see a bigger world.
