Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog! I'm Genni, and today I'll be doing a discussion post. If you haven't seen my 2019 Challenge post, you might not be aware that I am participating in the discussion challenge hosted by Feed Your Fiction and It Starts at Midnight. For my first discussion post of the year, I wanted to try to get to the bottom of a bookish question I've had for years: are big books better?Of course, what is deemed "short" and "big" is objective. If you read only high fantasy, you might think a short book is 400 pages. However, that's pretty long if we're talking about a YA romance. For the purpose of this discussion post, I'm going to be sectioning off the books I read in 2018 into three different categories: small, medium, and large. Small books will be 250 pages and less, medium books between 250 and 399, and large books 400 and over.
In 2018, I read 111 books. Out of these 111, I did not rate 8, leaving 103 ratings for me to look at. Based on my scale above, I have read 22 small, 52 medium, and 29 large books in 2018. This isn't a huge surprise for me. I would say that most books fall in that 300 to 400 range. Since I had a pretty big shift in my reading in 2018, in which I started to read more YA contemporary and adult romance novels, these results make a lot of sense.
