Have you already surpassed your 2018 Reading Challenge? That's fantastic. Congrats!
But then this isn't for you. This is for the rest of us. You know, the dreamers. We starry-eyed readers who set a reading goal—a good goal, a challenging goal!—at the start of the year that was perhaps disconnected from what we could realistically achieve.
And now, as the end of the year draws near, we're woefully behind.
We're not panicking, though. On top of short reads and audiobooks, there are entire categories of books underrated for their ability to entertain, enlighten…and be completed in a single sitting. Fellow Reading Challenge strugglers and stragglers, say hello to graphic novels, comics, poetry, and picture books. (Yes, they all count. There's no room for reading shame here.)
We've rounded up some of the most highly rated of these books. Bonus: Each one is written by a Goodreads Choice Award nominee. Add the titles that catch your eye to your Want to Read shelf and recommend your favorite short reads in the comments.
Graphic Novels & Comics
For a visual treat of unknown and uncanny wonders
For intensely relatable journeys of self reflection
For literally saving the world (spandex optional)
For offbeat adventures through time and space
Poetry Collections
For a dark reimagining of classic fairy tale worlds
For a celebration of daily triumphs and revelations
Picture Books for Any Age
For silly and satirical flights of fancy
For politicians and pundits of any age
For a reminder of the power of stories and imagination
