2024 Reading Wrap-Up and 2025 Goals

Books Read in 2024

 

It’s mid-January and I'm finally posting about my 2024 reading wrap-up and talking about my 2025 goals. Better late than never!

2024 Reading Wrap-Up

• Total books read: 77
• Total pages read: 25,190
• Days read: 360
• Average rating: 4.09
• New books bought/received: 34

My goal was to read 50 books, so I definitely surpassed that goal! I did pretty great with my other reading goals as well. I took part in Jane Austen July as planned and annotated a book during that reading challenge. My goal was also to take part in Victober, but because I decided to write a completely new novel in November, I didn’t have time to focus on reading in October. I did read one Victorian book, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, but I’m just going to say that I did not reach the Victober goal.

December Wrap-Up and January Goals

 

December Reads

December Wrap-Up

• Finished: 8
• Total pages read: 2,287
• Average rating: 4.06

A solid end to the year! I finished eight books in December: three fiction books and five non-fiction books. One of the fiction books was the final book of Shadow and Bone trilogy by Leigh Bardugo, Ruin and Rising (3/5 stars). I have to say that the final book was a huge disappointment after what had been a promising start. Click the link to read a longer review.
