About Novelette

The name given to a short novel, often light, romantic and sentimental, a novelette is longer than a short story but shorter than a novella or novel, while still having a complete narrative. In music terms, it refers to a short piece of lyrical music.

With Nova a popular choice and Novella quietly seeing more usage, Novelette could gain more attention in coming years, alongside the likes of Scarlette, Colette, and Odette.

Pronounced nah-vul-ET.
