Hello friends. I thought it would be fun to look back at all of the books I've read in 2025.
I didn't realize it, but the last time I shared the books I read was back in July of 2025 here. I will try to keep track and do a blog post for each month of the books I've read.
HERE IS A LIST OF THE BOOKS I'VE READ FOR 2025:
- Christmas Presents by Lisa Unger
- After I Do by Taylor Jenkins Reid
- The Stolen Queen by Fiona Davis
- Lies and Weddings by Kevin Kwan
- Things We Left Behind by Lucy Score
- Just For The Summer by Abbey Jimenez
- The Housemaid's Secret by Freida McFadden
- The Wedding People by Alison Espach
- Vera Wongs Guide to Snooping on a Dead Man by Jesse Q. Sutanto

I was down with reading books for 2025 and I only read 16 books. I am hoping to read more books this year. I look at it this way, at least I'm dedicating some time to read books that I enjoy and it's not a competition!
My Favorite Book of 2025: My Friends by Fredrick Backman

I will share this post at the monthly book link-up party Share Your Shelf. It's held on the first Thursday of each month.

You're right -- it's not a competition. But I always track and I always feel better if I've read more. On the other hand, sometimes things step in that slow it down -- travel, family visits, illness, real life. I say 16 is pretty darned good!
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely not a competition. I kept a list of what I read this year too and just dedicating the time to reading has helped me a lot! I read some from your list and know I've gotten some recs from you too. Happy reading in 2026!
ReplyDeleteReading is definitely not a competition! I would like to read My Friends - it has great reviews!
ReplyDeleteGood morning Julie, you are quite the reader. Looks like some great books to read. Enjoy winter.
