Has short chapters
 Any book with short chapters will fit this prompt. What’s the definition of a “short” chapter, you ask? Well, that’s entirely up to you!

It may be “short” in comparison to your regular reads, or it may be that the chapters are less than five pages long. While we’re looking for a book that has short chapters as a whole, some chapters may be longer than others. This is another prompt that will vary widely in definition from reader to reader.
