January was a bit of a slower month for me... partially because of how often I hit play on Heated Rivalry (yes, still!), partially because I picked a few longer books, and partially just because of life!

I'm catching up on a little bit of my "Best of" content for last year, and this is probably my favorite recap post to write. It's so much fun to look back at all the books I've read over the past year, and pick out the ones that really stuck out to me.

Before we get into any "Best of 2025" type of content, I need to wrap up December! The month started out very strong for me reading wise, and then I started reading Rachel Reid's Game Changer books, and they put me in a bit of a slump because all I wanted to do was read more about Shane and Ilya. It's a new month, though, and I'm slowly getting out of my slump. But for now, here's everything I read last month.

I know December is halfway over, but I didn't want to let the year end without sharing everything I read in November!

I had another great month of reading in October - it felt like a good mix of genres, and I really enjoyed so many of them!

It was another month with a lot of time at home resting, so another month with a lot of extra time to read! And it was a really good month for books, too - so many that I didn't want to put down as I was reading them.

I've wanted to write this post for about two months now, but I figured it's better late than never! I like to do a little reading check in about halfway through the year (or a little bit more, in this case) and pick out my favorite books of the year so far. Out of all the books I read from January though August, these were the best to me.

I had such a great reading month last month - not only did I read a lot, but I felt like it was a good mix of genres, and a lot of the books were just really good, too. It's hard to pick favorites, but Katabasis definitely lived up to my expectations, and What Hunger completely took me by surprise, in the best way! But those weren't the only books I liked - read on to see everything I read in August.

I know this post is late (again!), but July was a heavy month of reading for me! I have been spending a lot of time at home, which means I've been spending even more time than usual reading. Here's everything I read last month.

I know this is a bit (...okay, a lot!) late, but better late than never. Last month was full of so many good books! There's just something about summer reading for me - maybe it's nostalgia for summers of my childhood with nothing to do but read, I don't know! But I always get the mos reading done in the summer, and June did not disappoint. Here's everything I read.
