I agree with people who say size doesn’t matter. However, that wasn’t always the case…

I used to believe that you need to spend several days or weeks reading a single book. It wasn’t worth borrowing from the library if it was short. At least, that was the impression I got from intellectuals who constantly boasted about reading long books with thousands of pages.

Here’s the thing: Reading isn’t supposed to be a dick-measuring contest to see who can read the longest book. Nor is it meant to prove that you’re smarter than other people. Anyone who claims those things is missing the point.

Now, I recognize that reading is supposed to be fun, enjoyable, and extremely relaxing. So with all of that in mind, I want to share several interesting books that you can binge-read in less than a day.

1) Everyone’s a Aliebn When Ur a Aliebn Too by Jommy Sun

My girlfriend and I read this book together in less than an hour.

It’s a beautiful story about an alien sent to observe planet Earth — where he learns important lessons on love, happiness, and other aspects of life.
