it's not under 200 pages, but it's a collection of many short stories. i really enjoyed it (especially ,,Hell is the absence of god", maybe you can find that somewhere else too). the stories are all a bit philosophical

when im in a reading slump i go for books that are a collection of short stories. the shorter length makes it easier to finish a story in one sitting so you can have that sense of accomplishment and also variety without a big commitment.
some of my faves are:
prayer for the living - ben okri ‼️‼️
life ceremony - sayaka murata
her body & other parties - carmen maria machado
the dangers of smoking in bed - mariana enriquez

k the book itself probably isn’t that short but it’s a collection of short stories that have a stranglehold on the weird online rn
if you’re looking for a quick read, the first story “The Feminist” is avail on n+1

i've been getting into scouting again in the last few months, partly because sleeping outside, freezing, getting dirty and just generally not having everything i need makes me feel human again.
you could go camping or just spend more time outdoors (and i mean like in actual forests and stuff, not your neighborhood or park [well who am i to judge, if that is what works for you its fine too])! reconnecting with nature always helps. oh, and definitely leave your phone at home!
