#2025WrapUp

I had to fit in at least one Christmas book this year while on break, and this was cute. The second half was stronger than the first half. I admittedly didn‘t love the dual-timeline storytelling about Patrick and Quinn‘s past, and I would have preferred if it stayed in the present leaning more into the Santa plot. The beginning also read exactly like Tim Allen‘s The Santa Clause so felt a bit unoriginal. But the world expanded as the book went on.

My first #bookspin in quite some time. Can‘t wait for 2026 to begin!

I was a little late to the #bookspin game this year until I stumbled on a way to do it that wouldn‘t make me lose my mind managing it. 🤪

I just pick ten books, and for 2026 I will roll over to the next month whatever I don‘t read. It‘s a mix of library books and ones from my own shelf.

12-29-25: My 80th finished book of 2025! Randy Rainbow, his real name, is hilarious. If you haven‘t watched his parodies online you are missing out. This memoir was wonderful and really showcased his humor but also his love for his mother, grandmother and musical theater which endeared me to him even more. For someone who created his own niche of comedy, I marvel at how quick witted and on the nose he is! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️📖#️⃣8️⃣0️⃣

My favorite book of April is Greta & Valdin. I listened to it over audio, definitely recommend. I loved this book so much I need to buy a copy for my shelves. #12Booksof2025
