How is it already 2025 and time to do my 2024 Wrap Up!? I accomplished my reading goals this year, but I did not avoid slumps. I think I just need to accept that I encounter them and it’s OK. Because of the slumps, my reading was very inconsistent from month to month. I listened to my first fiction audiobook this year and enjoyed it, so maybe those will help in 2025. December was my best month (which is typical for me), I read 11 books in December.
Reflecting on my 2024 reads was fun – I especially enjoyed completing my 2024 bracket with Alyssa. Happy 2025!

Genre Variety
I read a decent genre variety again this year, but as you can see I am pretty consistent with my top two being romance and contemporary. Next year, I’m going to continue this goal and try to add my own tags for genre to these books to get more specific details. Shout out to StoryGraph plus for this awesome graphic!

Because the woman in purple has been readying herself for the cruelest form of interpersonal terrorism; small talk.
