Showerthought: picking between my dad's 400 page novel and a 96 page novella on a flight to Denver changed how I read forever
I grabbed the novella at the airport bookstore in Denver because my dad's book wouldn't fit in my carry on, and I finished it before we even landed, and now I'm wondering if anyone else has picked the shorter book on purpose and regretted it later.

Flying with a short book is honestly the move most of the time, since you actually finish it instead of lugging around a brick you keep meaning to start. The trick is grabbing the novella on the way out and saving the long one for home, so you never feel like you wasted the trip. No regrets needed here, you just learned how you actually like to read.
