So basically the only rule for this list is that I had to read or
finish the books in 2025. Everything else is my opinion. Of course, if
you're interested in my deeper thoughts on these books, check out my
reviews.
Number of times I smashed my Reading Goal: 1 time
Number of Books Read: 71 read, bringing my lifetime total to 1,148 books
Number of Pages: 26,648
Shortest Book: Aboard the RMS Aquitania by Ben Aaronovitch - 5 pages, barely a short story
Longest Book: The Shapeshifters by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes - 968 pages
Favorite New Read: A House Between Sea and Sky by Beth Cato - Really interesting, mostly cozy fantasy.
Favorite Reread: The Dragonriders of Pern by Anne McCaffrey - The copy I have is an anthology of the first 3 books in the overall Pern series, which I just adore.
Favorite Non-Fiction: I did not read any non-fiction this year.
Favorite Series: InCryptid by Seanan McGuire. Finished off that series this year. It's just a really fun series, you guys.
Favorite Author: Seanan McGuire - This hasn't changed since last year, even though I didn't read a lot from her this year... again.
Most Read Author: Laurell K. Hamilton - Been going through the Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter series, which ended up being more books than the Pern series by 6 books! I'm not even close to done with it yet!
Least Favorite Book: Token of Darkness by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes - I didn't like it the first time and rereading did not change that.
Most Disappointing Read: Percy Jackson by Rick Riordan - I really wanted to like the books, ya'll. I really did. I probably would have if I'd read them when I was younger but... Percy Jackson just wasn't for me.
DNF Pile: Dragon's Code by Gigi McCaffrey & The Big Meow by Diane Duane
Favorite New-to-Me Character: Leah from The Prince of Nowhere by Emily Drake. She was such a fun character I wish had been in a better book.
Favorite Reread Character: Nathaniel Graison from Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter by Laurell K. Hamilton - Nathaniel is the sweetest cinnamon roll of a man, despite his horrible unbringing. I would protect him with my life.
Currently Reading: Acorna's Quest by Anne McCaffrey & Margaret Ball, The Masquerades of Spring by Ben Aaronovitch and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix: Illustrated Edition by J.K. Rowling, Illustrated by Jim Kay & Neil Packer
Finished Series: I finished 7 series this year.
Non-Book Stuff
I just wanted to brag that I finished 15 OviPets projects this year. I had several projects that were 1 or 2 traits with tattoos involved. Gotta love them Slime projects. Heh.
I also finished 2 full Pokedexes this year in Pokemon Legends: Arceus and Pokemon Scarlet. I'm proud of myself. 😁
