Expanding experiences in this reading life. Trying new things, new kinds of books, and new ways of reading.

For me that is more non-fiction, graphic novels, exploring genres I don't normally read.

Challenging comfort zones.

Reading adventures with reading friends.

This year is about letting my instincts take me on new reading adventures.

Spreading the joys of reading to everyone everywhere.

2026 slow reading desires: Les Miserables and Middlemarch (and maybe some Dickens in there too.)

Curating my library (which means culling some of my books.)

What's your reading going to be about this year? Projects, challenges, joys?

January

Piranesi by Susanna Clarke (Jan. 10) - A gift a friend mailed to me. Yep - read in one day. Totally captivating. It's been a while since I've gotten lost in a novel the same way I did when I was a child, but this is that kind of novel.
Fundamentally by Nussaibah Younis (Jan. 2 - Jan. 9)
