Worlds Without End Roll-Your-Own Reading Challenge

2021 Big Fun In A Little Package Novella Challenge

2021 Big Fun In A Little Package Novella Challenge

I'm mainly a novel reader, so I've created this challenge as a way to encourage myself to read more Novellas in the run-up to award nomination season -- either for 2020 or 2021. But you can use it to track reading Novellas from any year, if you wish.

You can participate in this challenge on its own, or in conjunction with the Award-Nominated Short Fiction Read in 2021 Challenge (which includes Novellas, Novelettes, and Short Stories).

If the Novella you want to read is only listed in the WWEnd database as part of a collection or anthology, go ahead and add that volume to your challenge list -- or you can request that the Novella be added to the database individually in the Can't find the book you want? Make your book requests here! Part IV request thread in the WWEnd Users' Forum.

You can find out which Novellas are already in the WWEnd database here. Just select the year you want in the dropdown, make sure that the Book Type is "Novella", and click "Go".
