> In books: lightning-quick plots and chapter-ending cliffhangers. Nobody thinks The Da Vinci Code is high literature, but it’s a book that really really wants you to read it. And a lot of people did!

I know folks in literary circles like hating on Dan Brown, but I do love that all his books have very short chapters. It’s refreshing to have frequent stopping places, rather than tucking in for a 70 page chapter-that-should-have-been-a-novella. I feel like I get through books with shorter chapters faster.
