2025 has started pretty great if you ask me. I managed to read 16 books in January, which was exactly how I wanted to start the year. The end of 2024 was a little slumpy. So starting the year by just reading a tonne was exactly what I wanted to happen.
Not only am I happy with how much I was able to read, but I read so many books that I loved. I did a re-read of ‘The Empyrean’ series before Onyx Storm came out and had the best time. I was also able to binge-read a few books in other series that have been on my tbr for a little while. January was just a solid month. If you want to keep up to date with my reading you can check out my Goodreads, as well as Storygraph which I will be using more of this year.
But that’s enough chatting, let’s get into it. Here are all the books that I read this January. And as always these are in no real order.

Deviant King (Royal Elite, #1) by Rina Kent – 3 Stars. | Steel Princess (Royal Elite, #2) by Rina Kent – 3 Stars. | Twisted Kingdom (Royal Elite, #3) by Rina Kent – 3.5 Stars. | Fourth Wing [Dramatized Adapation] – 4 Stars. Reread.

And there we go, those are all the books I read in January! I am so happy with how the month went. Not only did I read a decent amount of books, I also read books I loved. There weren’t any books that I really disliked or anything like that. And I possibly read my favourite book of the year. So yer it was fantastic. What did you read this month? Do we share any books? Have you read any books on my list? Let’s chat!

This week I’m sharing some of the New-to-Me Authors I discovered in 2024. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl.
I discovered quite a few new-to-me authors in 2024. It was one of my goals for the year, and I’m so happy that I did because some of them are authors I cannot wait to read more of this year. From fantasy to contemporary romance and even some dark, I read a mix of new authors in 2024. Sometimes, I read only one book from them, and sometimes, I binged a whole series or even more books from an author.
So, let’s get into it. Here are the new-to-me authors I discovered and read in 2024. As always, these are in no particular order.

Lyla Sage – Read 3 Books | Tracy Lorraine – Read 1 Book. | Eliana Lee – Read 2 Books. | Catherine Cowles – Read 18 Books.

Tessa Hale – Read 6 Books. | Sarah A. Parker – Read 1 Books. | Chloe Walsh – Read 2 Books.| E. Salvador – Read 2 Books.

Rina Kent – Read 1 Book. | Kels Stone and Denise Stone – Read 1 Book.
And there we go, those are just some of the new-to-me authors I read in 2024. Most of the authors I’ve got on this list I’ve already read more from this year or I’m just waiting for them to release more for me to read.
What were some of your new-to-me authors that you read in 2024? Do we share any that are the same? Are you planning on reading any of this list? Let’s chat!

2024 was a strange year. I didn’t read as much as I would have loved, but I still read some fantastic books. While December is always messy for me in retail, I still read quite a few books later in the year. So today I thought I would share the last ten books I read in 2024.
It was great, from new-to-me authors to series I’ve been wanting to read more from for a while. I honestly read some stand-out books towards the end of the year and I cannot wait to read more. The start of 2025 has already been fantastic so I cannot wait to see what the year brings.
But let’s get into it, here are the last ten books I read in 2024. And as always they are in no real order.

Rally (Treasure State Wildcats, #3) by Devney Perry – 4 Stars. | Greed (The Deadly Seven, #2) by Lana Pecherczyk. – 4 Stars | Swift and Saddled (Rebel Blue Ranch, #2) by Lyla Sage. 4 – Stars | Lost and Lassoed (Rebel Blue Ranch, #3) by Lyla Sage. – 4.5 Stars

And there we go, those are the last ten books I read for the year 2024. As you can see it was a mix of contemporary and a little bit of fantasy and science fiction sprinkled in. How did you finish off 2024? What books did you read? Have you read any that made my list? So, let’s chat!
