It’s another Goodreads Year in Books and I love how they email out these graphics so I don’t have to do the work of making my own! So let’s take a look at how my year on Goodreads went.

This graphic says I read 191 but I know it’s over 200. And the last graphic says it’s 232 which is more accurate! Not sure why it’s different numbers. Except maybe because I’ve been reading January 2026 releases. So maybe the 191 is actual 2025 books and backlist books.

I guess they can’t fit all my 5 star reads. I feel like some books are missing from this graphic like Oathbound by. Tracy Deonn. I’m sure I gave it 4.5 which is a 5 star on Goodreads since they don’t have a half-point rating.

I didn’t realize I lowered my reading challege to 100 – I usually keep it at 125! But this year was so draining on my mental health because of everything going on in our country that reading was my way to stay sane. And at the looks of it, I needed 232 books to keep me sane, which is crazy. Usually I hit a limit at 170 books, where I just can’t read anymore.

Also, I think because I’m an arc reader on NetGalley it’s a given I’m going to hit my reading goals. It’s hard not too – I don’t think my reading challenge really matters anymore. The challenge I’m more concerned with is actually finishing the arcs I have requested. So I’m not looking at how many books I read a year now, I’m just looking to finishing what I requested.

Anyway, how was your #goodreadsyearinbooks ?
