great for when you’re tired and don’t wanna read a big long book. just started the great shark hunt (and loving it) but also would recommend rouges and the devil and sherlock holmes

or long stories, whatever floats your boat. for me, short stories seem less intimidating to get into and they usually pack a crazy punch. also good to get em in print so you aren’t staring at a screen. if you get invested in an author or series or publication, it can offer u soooooo many things to do- from checking out lil book shops, to visiting libraries, to attending readings, to joining book clubs!!! i know that in brooklyn there r a lot of rlly cool poetry readings happening in the evenings. could be fun to check out!!!
for short story recs, i’d reccomend anything by Neil Gaiman, Joyce Carol Oats, or Jhumpa Lahiri :)

Novels are great and all but a regular habit of bite sized short stories can get you right in a pinch

I don't think that short story collections are appreciated enough, and beyond being fun to read, they are the best way to get out of a reading slump. My top three favs are Her Body and Other Parties by Carmen Maria Machado, Homesick for Another World by Ottessa Moshfegh and Nineteen Claws and a Blackbird by Agustina Bazterrica :) they have all left such an impact on me
