My 2025 Reading list
So last year in 2024 I had a goal of reading 25 books but did not reach my goal. So new goal because we’re gonna try again. Thirty books. This year I am going to reach my goal. Also if anyone has any book recommendations from authors of color from around the world, or gay books that’d be really great since I also want to widen my reading view. #2025bookgoals #book #booklover #readingslump #readingchallenge

For those looking to expand their literary horizons, exploring works by authors of color can provide fresh insights into different perspectives. Books like 'Hood Feminism' by Mikki Kendali and 'The Poppy War' by R.F. Kuang offer thought-provoking narratives that challenge societal norms and spark essential conversations. Additionally, LGBTQ+ literature has made significant strides, with stories that dive into the complexities of identity and relationships. Titles like 'All Boys Aren’t Blue' by George M. Johnson and 'Highly Suspicious and Unfairly Cute' by Talia Hibbert resonate with many, reflecting diverse experiences within the community. Engaging with these narratives not only enriches one's reading experience but also fosters empathy and understanding across different cultures and identities. Therefore, as you embark on your own reading journey, consider mixing genres, exploring diverse authors, and actively participating in discussions around these topics. Remember, the goals we set, like the 2025 reading challenge, can lead us to discover exciting new stories that resonate with us deeply.
