Goodreads Year In Books🎊📖📚

It’s not my usual aesthetic but i did want to share my #goodreadsyearinbooks

I didn’t hit my 2025 reading goal the way I wanted. Finishing 9 out of 24 books wasn’t what I had planned but I’m giving myself grace. This year was full in ways I didn’t expect, and even so, those 9 books still brought me comfort. Reading on my Kindle became my little reset when I needed it most. Going into 2026, I’m feeling hopeful and motivated to be more intentional, make space for the stories I love, and not only meet my goal, but hopefully surpass it. Here’s to more cozy nights and days, highlighted passages, and getting lost in a good book again 📚✨
