2025 Reading Challenge discussion

Hey everybody!
I just joined this group in may and want to keep track of my reading process here. As almost half a year has passed already I have read 16 books up until this point.

I'm optimistic about reaching my goal this year, even though it is the first challenge I've set myself up to.

Hi Mimi, sounds like you're off to a great start! Good luck and happy reading!

Good luck with your challenge throughout the year. I hope the next 14 books are fantastic.

Thanks for the lovely message Lisa!
I mostly read fantasy and YA books, but I enjoy historical fiction as well, though I need to find some more good books in this genre.
What books do you enjoy?

I try to mix it up and read a variety of genres, but I gravitate most towards fantasy (YA or adult) and thrillers. It really depends on my mood :) Historical fiction and non-fiction are genres that I should definitely read more often.
Do you have favorite time period within historical fiction?

Yes! I especially like books that take place in ancient greek times. I just love the greek/roman mythology.

Non-fiction is a genre I would like to explore more too.
