Q: What was the last book you added to your TBR?

(Mine was Somebody Worth Killing, by Jessica Payne.)

I haven’t been productive. My mom spent most of this past week in the hospital, so I’ve been understandably out of sorts.

I was excited to receive these two #giftedcopies from the #NovelSuspects Insiders Club yesterday!

Hemlock: A Novel, is a queer, gothic, coming-of-addiction novel.

American Reich uses the murder of a college student to examine the resurgence of white supremacy.

At last here’s the long-awaited book for Seven, the brash Jericho’s Boy who once swooned over Thomas Mulvaney and called him “Daddy” before he got a glimpse of superstar lawyer Enzo. 4⭐️

#AVowinVengeance did the one thing that has fatigued me with every book I’ve read before with a tarot-based magic system: It made me actually want to understand the magic. 4⭐️

This book is very unserious. It’s a light supernatural fantasy with a steady mystery plot and a romantic subplot (it’s not a romance novel). It has a mix of awkward and dark humor, but also has some genuinely emotional scenes.  3.5⭐️

When I mood read, 99.5% of the time it’s going to be some flavor of romance.

If I had a comfort blanket of books, it would be nmade of romance novels.

These are basically the highlights of those mood reads.

I’d like to say that I wavered on this top five until the last minute, but I knew as soon as Hazelthorn entered the chat that the top five was pretty much set.

We’ll see what 2026 has in store.

In case you’re curious, I’m going back to a Top 20 at the end of 2026. But somehow I talked myself into doing 25 this year.

I rated all of the books on this list 5⭐️.

My Top 5 will go up on NYE.

Q: What was the last book you added to your TBR?

(Mine was Pictures of You, by Josh Malerman.)

Guess what? I ended up DNFing Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil. Reading it felt like work. Blech.

…And then the world was all Ilya and Shane.

Post-2024 I decided to concentrate on the street/ARC teams of authors I felt I still vibed w/ & appreciated me as a member so here’s 2025’s best-of.

Q: Did you read any of these or are they on your TBR?

I doff my hat at these authors for swallowing my soul and making me drop everything to read their books this year.

🩶 Note: This list is for books I discovered in 2025 only.

🩶 Note-Note: I just noticed this list is all why choose.

One of my 2025 reading resolutions was to read more horror, and holy moly mother of gumdrops did I choose a great year to do this.

So here’s a roundup of the horror (and horror adjacent) books I read in 2025 and what I rated them.

I like taking time every year to appreciate my best 4⭐️ ARCs, because sometimes they’re just a smidge away from being a 5⭐️ read and deserve their own spotlight.
