Title: OMFG
Post by: superclucky on September 03, 2007, 05:13:16 PM
Recommend me a book that's 300 pages or less.

I don't want no romance novels, or something about life.  argh;

Or murders.  powerofone;

NO MOVIE REMAKES PLZ

Uh... 300 or less is hard... I think the last book that size I read was Good Omens by Terry Pratchett/Neil Gaiman (it's satire/fiction), and that might not even be that short.

Try an old Asimov novel or something. Or something by Lovcraft.

That's an anthology of short stories, but if that works, go ahead, Lovecraft is brilliant.

He does have a few full-length novels, though. I don't know if they're under 300 pages.

There is this book "Blink" I'm not sure if it is under 300 pages, but it can't be much longer. It is about how our subconscious makes decisions for us in split seconds. It's a really interesting book. It's not boring like fact after fact, it's some awesome things people did by manipulating the subconscious and figuring it out and stuff, and how the subconscious works. It's by Malcolm Gladwell, check it out.
