Here are my GoodReads stats for 2025:
As you can tell by the average rating of 4.1, I loved a lot of books in 2025.
Let's just say, I love my reading life. Taking good care of my eyes is a priority. Macular degeneration is not going to defeat me!
77 books and 26k pages feels so good! I read a variety of favorite authors and discovered some new ones. I enjoyed a bunch of mysteries, historical fiction, and nonfiction, including some terrific memoirs.
I have a hard time picking favorites, but here's a few that I will definitely reread:
- The Briar Club, by Kate Quinn
- Emma, by Jane Austen
- The Heirloom Gardener, by John Forti
- Fifteen Wild Decembers, by Karen Powell
- The Last Bookshop in London, by Madeline Martin
- John Adams, by David McCullough
- The Killer Angels, by Michael Shaara
My very best wishes to all of you for a happy and healthy 2026. May your days be merry and bright, and may all of your reading choices yield 5-star books.
Happy Hogmanay - 2026 is my year of Scottish reading, so I baked shortbread yesterday and shared some with my neighbors
