What I read in a week! ✨

My first full week of reading in 2025 ⭐️

Books Featured 📚

Silent Patient - Alex Michaelides 🧥

The Hunger Games - Suzanne Collins 🏹

This is my very first week of joining the Book community! I’m so excited as I am a brand new reader! I’ve read a few books way before but made it a goal of mine to make reading not only a habit, but an enjoyable hobby! This is how much I read this week as a full time student ☺️

... Read moreAs a new member of the book community, I immersed myself in the enthralling worlds of literature this week. Reading offers a wonderful escape and fosters creativity, making it an invaluable hobby. I started with psychological thrillers and captivating dystopian tales, aiming to expand my reading palette. Many new readers often inquire about how to choose their next book. A good tip is to explore various genres. Don't hesitate to lean on the community for recommendations! Websites like Goodreads provide vast resources and discussions around popular reads, helping newcomers find their favorite styles. Additionally, participating in active online communities like #booktok, #booklover, and #booksta can increase your book exposure. Sharing thoughts on chapters you love can inspire deeper discussions and motivate others too. As I strive to read more and better understand the insights that come with each title, I encourage others to join me on this delightful journey. Building a reading habit may take time, but it is rewarding for the mind and soul! Finding support within reading groups can also boost motivation, and attending book clubs might bring added joy and insight. Let’s continue to share our favorite books and uplift one another in this literary adventure!

This is what I read in a week! My goal for a good reading day is to read 100 pages. Which I hit almost every day this week! I decided to watch tv instead of reading on Friday so that’s the only day I didn’t hit my goal. It also helps to reach that goal if it’s with a book I am enjoying. Whi

This book gave me so many emotions. Gave me rage, anxiety, panic etc. This book is about this “perfect couple” but nothing is what it seems, but you wouldn’t even imagine what it is until you read it ! It’s not a crazy twist but it was worth reading it I enjoyed the ride with a very happy e

I still have to finish the book, but I thought it would interesting to track how much I read throughout the week. I am really enjoying this book. I don’t know if I will love the movie or not because I’ve heard the movie doesn’t convey Coryo’s narcissism as well as the book does. #currentlyreading
