Books

In 2025, I read 65 books across thrillers, literary fiction, memoir, and a few palate-cleansing lighter picks—then rated every single one with honest, no-fluff reviews. This post includes my full rating system, standout favorites, surprises, disappointments, and my best “if you liked this, read that” recommendations. Apparently, I generally like my books dark, moody, and emotionally devastating 😅📚
