I did a book crawl this year around march and really found the love of reading again. I know a lot of it is trash by literature standards but I've enjoyed the escapism quite a bit. My favorite was Moonbound, maybe my favorite sci-fi book of all time tbh. I also enjoyed the House of Salt and Sorrows, Bitterblue, and Sea Sparrow quite a bit.
What were your favorite books?
I'm seeing a lot of stories along the lines of "I read xxx books this year" and, well, fuck me, I don't keep track of that kind of thing.
2026? I absolutely will. I don't know HOW yet, but I'll take notes.
Hardcover is a new website for book tracking that I like right now, Story Graph is a slightly less polished but similar website and Good reads is the most popular one
They all have apps, so I downloaded each of them and, what the heck, I'll try out all four and see what I like! Might be a good thing to add to year end 2026... "Here's what I read and here's how the book apps compare!"
