My Year in Books

 This year, I read 16 books. My goodreads challenge/goal was 12, so I did really well. I used to read a lot more, but stuff happens, and my reading count is less. Any reading is good, right?

With this year's read books, I only had one that was DNF (did not finish). That's not too bad. Sometimes, I get more than one. It depends on what I'm reading at the time, and if I'm enjoying it or not. 

I read all genres, except romance. Can't stand that crap. My favourite genre is fantasy. Dark, epic fantasy. 

My goodreads reading challenge for 2026 will again be 12 books. I set the bar low mostly because I'm reading good meaty books that are well over 300 pages. Some as big as 800+. 

Now, you'll find some of my reviews on older blog posts, but not all. I didn't write posts on all of them, only the ones that I was doing strictly for review purposes. Now, all my reviews will be done via a blog post book review & posted to goodreads. 

Anyways, here's the link to my year in books.
