A Thing of Things. An Adjective Noun. The Thing and the Thing. All of which are softcore dubcon fantasies for straight women. (I'm not judging; mostly just jealous.)
I mean, sometimes novels have framing devices that muddy the water around origin, authorship, veracity, etc. Usually it's obvious enough, but it can be nice to have clarification.

Books nowadays have titles like:
Two Words: a really obnoxiously long sentence that explains nothing and only exists to keyword stuff product titles for Amazon searches

Well knowing if it’s a short story, novella, novel, novelette, or other form of narrative is always helpful.
Edit spelling

The only difference between those is the length, and you generally tell the size of a book by looking at the size of the book

A lot of stories can be in compilations, or originally in magazines or other form of combined methods.
Also, large print? Too many factors to just pick a book up and know its length.

Digital books, whether ebook or audio, make up about a quarter of the market. Can't tell the length on those.

I appreciate it for authors who usually publish short stories so that I can realize I'm not picking up a collection.
