Fast-paced books to get you out of a reading slump
Nothing kills a reading slump faster than a short, unputdownable book, the kind that grabs you from page one, moves fast, and makes you feel like a reading genius because you finished it in one sitting. Or would I say… I'm too lazy for hundred pages kind of book, I need short one please!
