my 2024 reading unwrapped
2024. A wild ride of less in quantifiable reading but more in appreciation of the time dedicated to reading.I read 50 books this year, not meeting my normal personal goal of surpassing the former year’s number of books read.

tbr stack from a wholesale lot
Only two of these books were on my radar before. And the rest of them? They just looked too interesting to sell before diving into them myself. Even if that means they’ll sit in the house for at least a year before I crack them open. I found such interesting books at my favorite bookstore…
