Well, I’m back! Seriously, welcome to my blog dear friends and visitors. I took a long break at the end of last year because my health issues had become overwhelming and I couldn’t face writing on top of everything else. On Friday, I will attempt to update the blog with my thoughts about the recent holidays and also our house move, but as it’s Wednesday I am going to post about my reading in 2025.

I had set myself a target of 50 books for the year, but struggled to find the right books which could engage my attention. I turned to old favourites for comfort and didn’t log them all on Goodreads. In November, I came across an author, R K Lander, that I hadn’t found before and immersed myself in her books about her character, The Silvan, reading her entire works over the rest of the year. Then, at the end of December, I found a series called The Winterlands Quartet by one of my favourite authors from my younger days, Barbara Hambly, and have also finished that! I think that my reading mojo may have returned.

Anyway, these are the images that Goodreads sends at the end of the year…

Once again I have set myself a target of 50 books for the year. It doesn’t matter at all if I don’t reach that number as my aim is to enjoy reading again and find my ability to lose myself in other worlds and forget my worries.

Here’s to another year of happy reading!

Love and best wishes,

Anne
