StoryGraph‘s stats are always so fun to review and I love the shareable graphic they added this year.

Read 135 books + DNF 2 books
It‘s no surprise that Romance was my top genre as I needed some light, hopeful reads.
I don‘t actively rate every book on StoryGraph so the average star rating is skewed here. I do rate them all on Goodreads which shows an average rating of 4.2 stars.

The tagged book was my last book finished this year 👇🏻

MeganAnn I really wanted to love this book. It‘s a historical romance centered around a Jewish community. I enjoyed that part & thought the setting was well written. However the characters fell flat. When they weren‘t together on the page, their chemistry completely disappeared & I no longer cared if they got together or not. The steamy scenes abruptly ended also. One went from descriptive oral to closed door & took me several pages to realize it was done 11mo
MeganAnn I think I‘ll try this author again in the future to see if she does better with a different storyline. I think this one just didn‘t quite work for me. 11mo

Did not make it out of Printer‘s Row Lit Fest this year without adding some books. Glad to see Love‘s Sweet Arrow back with a booth this year. ☺️
