A novella has generally fewer conflicts than novels and the endings are located at the brink of change. Unlike novels, they are generally not divided into chapters, but by sections with the use of white space. They are intended to be read at a single sitting. Therefore, fitting more easily into busy lives.
Whether this is your first introduction to the novella or you’ve been a long time fan, here is a list of some you might want to check out.

Great post, Tina!
Tina, thanks for the mention, dahlink! And Renee, you are so wonderful to say, you know, just sayin'!
I'm a huge fan of the novella, and when placed in an anthology of favorite authors, I'm in my happy place.
Loves me my novellas! BTW, can hardly wait for yours, RV!
And look who dropped by, but Gabriella herself. I agree, Renee, Until Emie is an excellent read.
I've only recently become a fan of the novella and I'm starting a TBR pile for them, like On The Fence by Keri Ford and Buried In Briny Bay by Bobbye Terry.
Thanks Ladies.
