This is my final post to sum up my reading for 2023! It has been a year of many changes as I closed out one chapter and started another. Overall, I read a total of 16 books this year, half as much as last year. But of the books read, I have enjoyed quite a few of them. My goal for 2025 is to read purely for my own enjoyment as I begin to have more and more of that freedom (but less and less time). Below are some books I would recommend from my reading this year, not in any particular order. Cheers to this new year and all the books that come with it!
1. To All the Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han.
This summer I read one of my all-time favorites again and it was amazing. I had the time to relax a little and enjoy myself just me and my book. Jenny Han never fails to make me smile as I will always be a fan of Peter Kavinsky (To All the Boys is literally one of the best comfort movies there is).
This was another childhood read I never got the chance to read when I was younger. My sister really loved this series so I thought why not? I might as well give it a try and see for myself, was not disappointed!
3. The Night We Lost Him by Laura Dave.
After reading The Last Thing He Told Me, I was hooked. Dave's way to write mystery/thriller novels captivates my attention until the end and OMG every single time the ending comes as a surprise. I love the layers of each book and just knew I had to read her newest novel.
4. When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi.
What a read this one was. The pile of tissues on my desk by the end was insane and I just kept crying and crying as the book tore me apart and put me back together again. I realize it's not just medicine that holds people together but the key is the people that practice medicine.
