![]() No, they’re not absolutely necessary for somebody to read the series, but I found that my enjoyment of both of those series was made greater by having read the novellas. Instead of just being fillers to bolster the author’s salary and series’ popularity, they really add something to the story that you wouldn’t be getting otherwise. ![]() Both provide some key information about the world and characters that people who only read the main books are seriously missing out on. Some novellas that I really love are: (1) the Shatter Me trilogy novellas, and (2) The Darkest Powers trilogy novellas. ![]() They’re usually quick and easy reads that provide some background knowledge to the series and/or access to a different character’s perspective. Of course there are some duds out there, but in general I love them. Today I want to talk about novellas! (Specifically the ones that are companions to series, not the ones that are standalones.) I know that people are kind of love-or-hate about the idea of novellas, but personally I’m a fan. ![]()
