Another set of quirky book data that I record is setting. This year more than half the books I read took place primarily in the US or the UK. Of the rest, 12 were set in many places or nowhere, and six were set in some fantasy realm.
The book that took place closest to my home was Inner Harbor, set almost entirely in Maryland.
The book that took place farthest away, if not in terms of actual distance then in remoteness, is Wild Dark Shorep.
Unpopular opinion. I really dislike Charlotte McConaghy....
Here are the 4 most disappointing books I read this year!
Murderland should have been great, but the author inserted herself in the most bizarre ways.
CRA - The movie was SO much better. Yikes
Apartment Women - What even was that? I had to look at my review b/c I have no memory of it, my review says people were mad about bins and sex noises LOL

This is the second book I read by this author. Loved it. If you like nature/climate changes as novel theme, written in a slow pace, character driven, then this novel can work for you but it is a sad story. I can understand people who doesn‘t like it because it could be categorized as tragic. But I read the physical book with audiobook with Saskia Maarleveld as one of the narrator and I felt in love with writing style and story⬇️
Down to the final crunch - squeezing another in before the end of 2025.
Day 5 of #12BooksOf2025. I love this author. Anyone know if she has a new book releasing this coming year?
