books I’ve read in 2025 (100 books!)

I can’t believe I achieved 100 books this year! This has definitely been the year where I was the most dedicated. In the past, I usually only read ~25 books a year. I’m grateful for all the authors and storylines I’ve experienced and I can’t wait to dive into some more in 2026!

I want to get into more genres, I have so many thrillers on my TBR that I want to get in to! I also need to dive back into fantasy, I miss it 😭

If you have any other recs regarding books or genres, let me know!
