2025 Reading...

Seventy-four books read this year.  Fifty-two were books for this year's reading challenge.  Three of them were over 800 pages.  One claimed to be 576 pages, but I swear it was longer than any other read this year.

Twenty-five of them were books that had been on my Kindle for a loooooong time.  LOVE that I have cleared out so much of my backlog!  The rest were library books or book club books.  Some were ones I just wanted to read or read again.

I started this post thinking that I did not want to do another book challenge...then I looked at The 52 Book Club 2026 Reading Challenge...now I'm thinking about it.  The prompt that really intrigues me is #13 -- bookface -- I want to try this!  If you don't know what "bookface" might mean (I didn't!) I've linked examples here.

Don't think I'll be doing the whole 2026 challenge, but it is tempting me more than I thought.

    1. It's in Goodreads. Each year I start a new book shelf for the year, then add each book I read, and it saves the covers. For this many, it took some finagling to save as a whole like shown above, as the max Goodreads shows is 30 per pane. So I saved each pane, and copy/pasted them into a MSPaint screen and saved that.

    2. ps: I've copied and pasted the image of all the prompts to my laptop desktop for easy reference, so though I said I probably wouldn't do it, I'm thinking I'm just kidding myself. I'm in. LOL

I have had a lot of really gross spam comments left lately, so I am having to turn comment moderation back on. To my nice blog friends, my apologies if this makes it more difficult for you to comment. To the mean naughty-talk spammers, just go away!
