Nine books I’m excited to read in 2024!
Thank you for the tag, @letthebookbegin! I read 7 books last year, and I’m hoping to make it to 10 this year! Fingers crossed 🤞🏼
I own five of these I need to hit at least 5.
Tagging @cascader, @alittlebitofeverything23, @isahorcrux, @florenceafternoon, @unknowableroom if you feel like sharing!

This is very revealing 🙈
(very happy I went back reading books again! not that fics aren’t valid reading, but I have so much I want to read outside of the fandom and meeting new characters and universes is a different type of pleasure)
Also, I had a lot of DNFs - I didn’t count the fics, but I DNF 16 books (1,980 pages read out of 5,681, according to Storygraph)

if he had been with me
A 3 Star read for me | I say
He says
She says
Someone should count every mention of "say" in this book, I bet it's a huge amount.
I had to check the publishing date because that book feels really early 2010s to me. It was published 2013 so I guess it's fine, but the 2010s vibes are there. Strongly. It kind of feels like something you would find on wattpad
I do like that it's an easy read, or listen if you're on audiobook, and the chapters are really short which I LOVE.
I didn't really feel the tragic ending tho. It told me that it was sad but I didn't feel it.
⭐⭐⭐

Almost to my 2024 reading goal! 52 done, one for every week of the year (my 2023 goal) and 4 months to read my last 8 books 📚
Honorable mentions so far:
The Haunting by Natasha Peterson 2/5 rating - I loved the entire book and storyline. I was hooked. Only for it to end on a cliffhanger that is never addressed (is that still considered a cliffhanger, or is it just a bad ending?) There's no closure and more questions than answers and once I was done, I feel like I wasted the two days I spent reading this.
Cold Sweat by Vera Valentine 5/5 rating - hilarious. A perfect palette cleanser in between long-winded thrillers. I read it in an afternoon and laughed the entire time. Books don't always have to be serious, and Vera is one of my favorite authors for a good laugh.
I Can Be a Better You by Tarryn Fisher 5/5 rating - one of my favorite authors by far. The main character is so tragically relatable, and by the end, I didn't know who's side I was on. My toxic trait is that I always think that I could stalk someone and get away with it for a while, and this book gave me some great ideas.

a more specific version of my reading goals poll
i like the broader categories of the first but seeing answers start coming in has made me more curious, especially about how many people have a goal of 100. if you want to vote on the other poll too it should be running until the 7th. and as always feel free to leave your specific number in the tags!

Reading Wrap Up 2024
I read 33 books in 2024 (somehow got a double listing in Storygraph but don’t feel like fiddling with it at the moment to fix it). I’m pretty happy with that amount – I had set my goal at 24 (because 2024), and I managed to surpass it so yay! If you want to see all the books, you can find the list here on my Storygraph page (definitely encourage you to leave GoodReads behind for this small…

i'm trying to surpass my goodreads annual reading goal.
you may be thinking, 'thats ambitious'. well my annual goal is 10, so not that much. and i am trying to get really into reading. so here is my hypothesis.
it takes me around two-three weeks to finish a standard length book, when im really invested into it, (which is what i am trying to do for every book). there are about fifteen weeks left in 2023. so if you do the math, i could read five more books this year if i am on top reading form. at the minute i have read seven books this year so hopefully i will be able to do it. i will update you all if i am able to achieve this. love goodreads.

Three months after Oscar went to prison, Bosie wrote a poem called Rondeau:
If he were here, this glorious sky,
This sweet blue sea, these ships that lie
On the bay’s bosom, like white sheep
On English fields, these hours that creep
Golden in summer’s panoply,
This wind that seems a lover’s sigh,
Would make a heaven of peace as high
As God’s great love, a bliss as deep,
If he were here.
This great peace does but magnify
My great unrest that will not die,
My deep despair that may not reap
One poppy, one poor hour of sleep,
Nor aught but pain to wake and cry,
‘If he were here!’
Bosie poem.
