POSTS STORIES REELS

getting some deja vu with barely completing my reading goal of 2025 by the skin of my teeth like i did in 2024 but i’m proud of myself for doing it!

📖50 books, roughly 5,500 pages and many journeys to new (or old given the many kids books i read this year for fun haha) worlds

📖to no surprise, @authormarenmoore was my most read author of 2025.

📖overall rating according to goodreads: 3.9⭐️

📖favorite reads: see photos

📖least favorite: caned because it was 25 pages of absolutely ✨nothing✨ and i really only read it because i knew it was that short and because i wanted to finish the series

looking forward to what 2026 brings me and what worlds i travel to next

💭what was your favorite or least favorite read of the year?

*ARC REVIEW*

i was pleasantly surprised by this book. it started out kind of giving me the same vibes as dear debbie by freida mcfadden but went in a completely different direction than i had anticipated, and i’m not mad at it. it started out kind of slow and therefore took me forever to read, but once i got through the slow beginning, i was hooked and enjoyed it. a good palate cleanser thriller

thank you to netgalley for the ARC

3.5⭐️
