This memorable year introduced me to 19 different genres, showcasing my evolving taste in literature. Thrillers and romance stood out as my favorite genres, providing a perfect blend of excitement and emotion. A notable highlight was participating in the 'Reading through the Alphabet' challenge, a captivating way to diversify my reading list, even though I only made it halfway this year. Throughout 2024, I found three books that truly resonated with me. My top recommendations include: 'Ella Enchanted,' a timeless tale that captivates young readers; 'Do Not Disturb,' a gripping thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat; and 'Before I Fall,' a poignant exploration of choices and consequences. Conversely, I encountered my fair share of disappointments, with five books that did not meet my expectations. Titles such as 'The Emotionally Exhausted Woman,' 'The Devil Wears Scrubs,' and 'The New Friends' left me yearning for more. Interestingly, my average time to finish a book was around 13 days—an enjoyable pace that balanced my passion for reading with life’s demands.
