what I really dislike is so many authors calling novellas “books”, or even worse “novels”. If I want to read a short story, at least tell me up front that is what it is! Anything under 200 pages just whets my appetite (if it’s good), and becomes a downer once done. Please be honest. If the “book” is just a taste of the series, let me know. Maybe I’ll try it anyway, and then I’d buy actual books in the same series. But if each is just a snippet- give me full sets so I can absorb a full story.
