I love this roundup, Cassandra! I have been looking for my next read and will have to add these to my list. In 2024, I think Remarkably Bright Creatures and Bunny were my favorite reads. They’re so different (the former is a cozy, feel-good read and the latter is a culty thriller), but they both sucked me in!

I've heard good things about both of those books! Hmm, Bunny might be a good read for my IRL book club for September!

Bunny is a good one! Though, it should be said that it is definitely odd (and a teeny bit gory), just a head's up!

Demon Copperfield is on my list! And one of my top books in 2024 was You Are Here by The David Nichols. I want to read his back catalogue this year!

Ooo I just read the synopsis and added it to my TBR! I've never read anything by David Nichols. It's always a treat when you read a book you love and then find out about the author's back catalogue!

What a great variety you've captured in six books here, Cassandra - thank you for sharing! Four Thousand Weeks and Demon Copperhead were both top reads for me as well. I hope your 2025 reading is off to an excellent start!

Thanks Christi! Those are two books that I still think about and that's one of the signs of a great read! I gave my first read of the year 5⭐ so we're off to an excellent start! I'll be sure to include the review for that one in an upcoming post. 😊
