Year in books for 2025

Here are the books I finished reading in 2025.

Observations: I was aiming for 24 and ended up with 16, 7 of which were audiobooks, all completed during road trips. Only one “growth” book this year: Tiny Experiments.

Best book: The Book Thief. Very highly recommended.

Worst book: Cursed Charm, which I knew would be true going into it. Sometimes you need to read trash.

Biggest disappointment: I didn’t finish Wind and Truth. I intend to, naturally, but this year was not a good year for massive, long reads for me.
