Meme by quillpunk at booknook

In 2024:

I Read: how many books in 2024? 81 (according to Goodreads, but I think there was at least four I may have DNF & reviewed, I did also start a bunch of books I did not finish & did not review yet on Goodreads)
My Reading Goal: did you have a goal, and how do you feel about it? End goal was 100, but I always start at 25 & if I pass that, go up by 25... So I did do past 75 but kinda gave up throughout the year at various times (mainly because I couldn't focus enough to read? Or just wasn't feeling it).
I Challenged Myself: did you do any reading challenges? how did you do? did you like it? I did join a bookclub for the first time and I absolutely loved it (minus the books that got picked, they ended up being fairly terrible) but it was nice doing something with people again. Sadly the bookclub broke up so I'm not part of any anymore.
A New Genre I Attempted: did you try a new genre, and if so, how did you feel about it? I'm usually more intro romance genre (and the various subcategories of those plus Marvel/DC graphic novels) but we did try a more Fantasy-focused genre in the bookclub (Book: The Priory of the Orange Tree) which I absolutely hated. Not for the fantasy aspects but more for the too much details that don't matter and way too many point of views - it was just too much for me. I was doing the audio version say maybe that was why but I just won't try that one again.
An Author New-to-me in 2024 I Really Enjoyed: Lana Ferguson, Elle Rivers, Natalie Cana, and Anita Kelly
My Favorite Book of the Year: Tie between 10 Things That Never Happened by Alexis Hall and Funny Story by Emily Henry
Books I Read in 2024 That I Recommend: Contractual Obligations by Elle Rivers, Love & Other Disasters by Anita Kelly, The Duchess Deal by Tessa Dare, A Proposal They Can't Refuse by Natalie Cana, Text Book Romance by Kristen Bailey, and Best Laid Plans by Roan Parrish (plus all the Alexis Hall and Emily Henry books which I have also read and really enjoy)

In 2025:

My Reading Goal: do you have a goal, and how do you feel about it? I'm going to start with 25 and hope to get 100. I mostly want to tackle my in-house TBR pile & maybe do some fun reading challenges.
I'm Going to Challenge Myself: do you plan on doing any reading challenges? Not sure... there's a Book Bingo that I like the idea of (I did substitute a few prompts). See if there are any other book clubs I could maybe join.
My TBR List: do you have one for 2025? how long is it? any plans? 1051 according to Goodreads.... lol. Sooo hopefully I'll tackle the ones I actually have in my house first.
Books I'm Especially Interested in Reading in 2025: Tackling my Marvel & DC books I haven't read already would definitely be amazing. But I'd say tackling at least at least 5-10% of my TBR pile would be amazing.
A Book Coming Out in 2025 That I'm Excited About: n/a (probably any books from authors I enjoy but I haven't looked)
Other Book-Related News for 2025 I'm Interested In: n/a

Da Rulez!
1. Comment on this post.
2. I will give you a letter (if you want one)
3. Think of 5 fictional characters and post their names and your comments on these characters in your LJ.

I commented on bringthefate's post and she gave me C. (For a brief moment I panicked but then I realized I actually love/like a lot of characters that start with C)

( 8 favorites because sometimes I'm an overachiever.... )

I was tagged by bringthefate 

The Rules:

1. People who have been tagged must write the answers on their blog and replace any questions they dislike with a new original question.

2. Tag eight people. Don't refuse that. Don't tag who tagged you.

So I'm going to tag...  ombriawinter dhfreak dance_the_dance  shadowglove88 paireinlove  xfirefly9x  babydee1 revivingophelia 

( you can see how boring my life really is.... )

And something completely off topic, NEW SEASON OF HAVEN SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK GOD! MISS ME SOME AUDREY/NATHAN.

Let's just say.... I'll finish this... just in my own time aka whenever I get manips made for my favorite pairings seen in this meme.


Also take in consideration at how many pairings I love and see if this meme isn't hard as shit... I seriously have a lot of trouble to find which ones I like the most...

Day 06 - The BEST kiss?

Why can I always seem to find more than ONE pairing to each of these questions? This one could have SOOOO many freaking answers, but this is sorta the latest pairing I found/fallen for.

I'm actually doing one of these 30 days things.... Let's see if I can do it without skipping any days. I found this meme via smokeandsong. 

Day 01 - What is your current favorite ship?
Ha... I have SOOO many right now.... But I'll choose the top 2 of the moment.

( list behind cut )

IF YOU’VE BEEN TAGGED, YOU MUST WRITE YOUR ANSWERS IN YOUR OWN LJ AND REPLACE ANY QUESTION THAT YOU DISLIKE WITH A NEW QUESTION. TAG ELEVEN PEOPLE. DON’T REFUSE TO DO THAT. DON’T TAG WHO TAGGED YOU.

I was tagged by dhfreak

I tag anyone on my friends list or anyone who sees this and wants to do it.
