Alyssa’s 2025 Reading Goals
Follow my progress on StoryGraph! Number of Books: 120 Reading Goals: My top goal this year is actually to read less. Instead, I want to put more effort into my other hobbies. I’ve set a goal of 10 books a…
Alyssa’s 2024 Wrap Up
I love wrapping up the end of every year. There’s something satisfying about noting all my accomplishments and tying it up in a neat bow. Or StoryGraph charts. My 2024 Wrap Up includes 159 books read, slightly beating my goal…
Birthday Book Haul 2024
My birthday falls close to the end of the year and for at least ten years I’ve spent my birthday gifts (read: cash) on a birthday book haul. Years past I’ve gotten books from the previous year that I missed.…

Alyssa’s September Stats
There is something about the end of summer/start of fall that always has me forgetting about my well-laid plans. And not just my reading goals and challenges. Sometime in November I’ll go crazy planning for the next year… only to…
Mariana Zapata Book Order
Apparently when I read one Mariana Zapata book, I must read MANY Mariana Zapata books. According to my StoryGraph stats, I did it last fall and I’m just finishing up another, more thorough, binge reading this year as I hinted…
Alyssa’s August Stats
Ok, August was my Kindle-Unlimited-Romance-Binge-Reading spree that happens every year. Every. Year. I did start a book that would go towards my 2024 reading goals and challenges. But I did not finish it. You can only read about the effects…
