My 2025 Goodreads Summary

I took these screen shots before I recorded my final book* of 2025, so the stats are off by one book (which turned out to be a 5-star read) 








A Far-flung Life by M. L. Stedman

    1. Kay, I really enjoyed Beyond That, The Sea. It's one I could read again. I'd love to read more by Laura Spence-Ash.

  2. I second the Nice! I like the stats & graphs. Always interesting to see. I particularly liked the Laura Spencer-Ash novel and I'm curious to see what she'll write next. Many good reads. Kudos.

  4. I hit send/publish before I was done. Ugh. You did well on the number of books and I see you did more memoirs and mysteries, both of which I like quite a bit. Funny how my tastes have changed over the decades as I used to read mysteries almost exclusively. Now I am favoring more nonfiction and definitely family dramas.

    I'm looking forward ot more by Laura Spencer-Ash, loved that book Beyond That, the Sea. Definitely looking forward to M.L. Sredman's new book. I thought that was a one hit for her with Light Across the Ocean. Wow!

    1. Tina, I really had a good year of reading. I hope Spence-Ash has something in the works for this year or next. You'll really enjoy Stedman's, I think.

  5. Congrats on a well-read year! We do have similar tastes, in genre as well as titles. I have got to prioritize reading God of the Woods!

  6. Wait. I've never seen any of those graphics in my Goodreads summary before. Obviously, I am not paying attention. These are super interesting!

    1. Helen, I don't know if it's something new this year or what. I tried to find the graphics again on Goodreads, but can't remember where I found them.

    1. JoAnn, so weird that we can't find these graphics anymore. I've tried, but to no avail. Hmmm.
