Monthly Wrap Ups

January Wrap Up!

Happy Monday bookish people! I hope you are all doing well. It is time to bring you my January wrap up.

How was your reading in January? Any new favourite books?

I had a pretty good month, as I am writing this it’s only the 16th of January so I have some more time to read more, and there’s one book I am planning on reading by the end of the month that I think might be five stars.

From my TBR:

  • Way of the Argosi by Sebastien de Castell – I read this FOUR STARS
  • An Enchantment of Ravens by Margaret Rogerson – I read this FOUR STARS
  • Murder at the Belltower by Helena Dixon – I read this FOUR STARS
  • A Forgery of Roses by Jessica S Olson – I read this FIVE STARS
  • A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J Maas – I am currently reading this but I already know it is going to be FIVE STARS
  • Crown of Midnight by Sarah J Maas – I did not read this one and only because I don’t want to read two Sarah J Maas books in a row so I am going to finish the ACOTAR series and then continue with the Throne of Glass series.

Outside of my TBR I have also read Murder at Elm House by Helena Dixon and… I plan on reading Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros before the month is over.

25 to read in 2025

Happy Friday bookish people! I hope you are all good today, a bit of a warning, this might be a long one.

I have been seeing these lists everywhere and I thought it would be fun to do my own. So, these are the 25 books I want to prioritize in 2025. I have chosen these books because they are either: oldest on my TBR, continuing series I have started which is one of my goals for the year or they are books I feel like I should have got to by now.

The ACOTAR series (yes, I am counting the books I have left to read – A Court of Wings and Ruin, A Court of Frost and Starlight and A Court of Silver Flames – as one together because I really want to finish this series in 2025)
