Life changing books shorter than 100 pages that I can read in the next couple of days while I'm bored. You know, something to make my spring break somewhat productive.

Got anything like that /lit/? Random gif for your amusement. Thanks.

Think you might be asking for a bit much? How about, great books under 150 pages. That would give me room to work. Let's give that a crack.

Siddhartha
Animal Farm
The Stranger
The Death of Ivan Ilyich

Great suggestions, except the last one. I'm guessing you didn't mean the book of genesis and that's kinda a broad suggestion.

Any others?

Don't get mislead by the title, it's a cool story about this guy in the amazon jungle.

Ragged Dick.

The Metamorphosis.

Of Mice and Men.

Can't remember if it's short enough or not. Don't want to get up and check...but Lovecraft has plenty of short stories between 100-200pgs.

The strange case of charles dexter ward was pretty interesting.
The Fall of the House of Usher by Poe.

It's about a kid opening a bank account then depositing the money he makes from shining shoes into the bank account. Will doubtfully change your views or mind or life.

Could never finish that book. However, I did like the allusion to the fates, er, the moirae.
