9/36 Reading Goal for 2025
Book #9 is “Three” by Valerie Perrin. Really liked this one - story told from a few perspectives about three inseparable friends in high school and how their lives diverge and then come back together 20 years later

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and 1/2

Book #8 is “blackbird” by James Keene. True story about an inmate trying to get a serial killer to admit to more crimes. Really wanted to like this one but it fell pretty flat for me

⭐️⭐️ and 1/2

Book #7 is “Trust” by Hernan Diaz. Really liked this story and how it was told through four different perspectives and came with a nice twist in the end to boot!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and a 1/2

Book #5 is “The Bee Sting” by Paul Murray. It’s an epic multi generational tragic comedy about the downfall of an Irish family and all the sliding doors that led up to it. Really interesting story told through multiple character’s viewpoints

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Book #4 is “Who gets in and Why” about the college admissions process. In four years I’ll have three kids in college so this was a doozy. I need to read something fun next but overall super interesting

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Book #2 on the year is Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami. Super unique writing style - my first time reading anything by him - that I enjoyed quite a bit. Powerful story about love and loss. I’ll read more by him for sure

4 out of a possible 5 stars form me

Book #1 on the year is “small things like these” by Claire Keegan about an ordinary fella that discovers some shady ass things done by the Catholic Church in small town Ireland in 1885. Great start to the year with this one. 4.5 stars #booksky📚💙

Book #40 (hit my goal too!) on the year is “Leonardo Da Vinci” by Walter Isaacson. Loved every page - such a fascinating and talented man who was literally hundreds of years ahead of his time in several ways. Solid 8.8 out of 10 for me #booksky📚
