  I got sick at the beginning of the month, which was better for me. I usually spend Christmas and my birthday sick in bed. But it did mean that my reading time shrank. Because being sick means lots of sleeping for me. I managed to read 13 books  6 ARCs 7 KU Time to get back to reading Happy Reading

  This is a snapshot of my Goodreads stats. I exceeded my reading goal. Which I love. I think I'll keep 200 as my goal for 2025. I still have quite a few NetGalley ARCs that I need to finish, so I need to work on that next year. I chose Binge Listener as my Goal for 2024, which was 20-30 books. I only managed to read 11 audiobooks last year. I'm not sure if I should keep the same goal or lower it. Happy Reading

The list is pretty small this month These were the only books on the list I voted on. I'm also looking forward to Thorns Of Blood, which comes out today. Emperor Of Lust Visions & Shadows Misguided Vows Lyon's Lover
