I've only read 22 books this year. Got 9 favourites which is a pretty impressive ratio but my god this may be my worst reading year quantitatively. 😮‍💨

Marquise Same, same, same. :'(

Cursed year overall, for me.

Emily M Eh, as long as you’re having fun (and with 9 new faves, it sounds like you are), what do total numbers matter? Besides, even if it low for you, I bet most people would be pretty happy with finishing a new book every 2 weeks!

I'm depressed, broke and my country is devolving daily. The fun never ends. It also takes me months to finish one book.

Right? gestures vaguely and the state of the world just doesn't relent.


Left Coast Justin I'm sorry you're having a crap year, Mwana (and Marquise), and about the state of the world. I hope your reading has been free og Bath Haus type books.

Thank you LCJ. Katabasis damn near destroyed me. It was definitely a bedazzled kitchen knife

Hallie This is where middle grade comes in. When I’m having a hard time I reach for something light and fluffy. <3

Yeah, simpler stories can help. May revisit my favourite YAs to see if I can get my groove back. I'm currently reading a comic book
