April 7th: Novellas: Do you get enough or want more?

Novellas are obviously often better than short stories. And with all stories I often want more, even with long ones. There is a thin line between wanting more because it was good, and wanting more because it i just too short and not in any good way.

So yes I can not say yes or no, it all depend on how well the author manages.

  1. I don't get many novellas so I guess I'd have to say I want more.

  2. I agree. Sometimes short stories just don't have enough information but sometimes they do tell a wonderful little story.

    1. I guess like with all stories they can be a hit or a miss

  3. Same. They used to be very incomplete so I didn't like them. then a year or so ago there were some amazing ones that also helped when my attention span was short. But now they're kind of meh again lol

  4. It really does depend. I think the best ones are the "in between" stories in bigger series I already read.

  5. I mostly end up wanting more, so yeah, that's why I'm not a big fan of the short format.

  6. Of course, it depends on how well written it is whether I enjoy a novella or not, but I don't mind them especially when its more from a favorite series or author.
