    Top 5: Books I Read in 2025 (Nonfiction)

    Although fiction has taken up most of my reading time over the past couple of years, nonfiction is my favorite genre to read. I feel like I didn’t read as much as I would have liked to in 2025 because this list was the easiest Top 5 I’ve ever put together…

    Top 5: Books I Read in 2025 (Fiction)

    Better late than never, right? I don’t know how a weeklong flu back in January threw me so off kilter for the entire first half of the year, but here we are. I’ve been struggling to keep up with writing my reviews as I finish a book, meaning I typically have to marathon it when…

  • April Wrap-up

    April Wrap-up

    It’s been a long month. I had to say goodbye to my cat of 16 years and help my mother as she gets ready for surgery in June. Time has lost meaning, but on the upside, it’s been my most productive reading month so far this year…
