Typically around 100 pages each and they go fast so stock up on a few KT Tomb and jack up your progress towards your goal. In case you are not on Kindle Unlimited like I am the books cost $3 each, I read so much that Kindle Unlimited is a great idea.

I honestly don't get this. It seems to me the point of a challenge is as a goad to read more of the books you want to read, not to set up an artifical goal that can be met by reading junk* you ordinarily wouldn't have touched. If I had to seek out short books I don't want to read in order to meet my goals, I'd be better off abandoning my challenge, IMO.
*This is not a judgment on Tomb, whose books I don't know. Junk is short for a personal and individual evaluation of all the possibilities out there that don't appeal at all, depending on one's own tastes. Along those lines, KU would be a poor choice for me; it would be money wasted, not money saved.
