Currently reading
This page is to keep track of books I’m reading, to ensure I don’t have six unfinished books in progress, and to remind me to finish the ones I’ve started. I’m always reading or re-reading something, the re-reads are in italic.
Everything under a month is a book that I finished reading that month, there is also a section for “did not finish” at the bottom of the page. I'll be updating on a StoryGraph page, see my 2025, 2024, and 2023 wrap-ups.
Totals for all books, re-reads, library books, and did not finish.
