My Year in Books: A Guided Book Review Journal | Book Nerd Printing Press

My official reading stats for 2024

As of today, these 12 books are the ones I continue to think about the most. The top row includes #1001books, #LitsyBookClub reads, a #CampLitsy read, and 1 reread for a #ShardlakeBR. I tend to focus on first time reads for my year end list, but rereading the Shardlake series must be included. The bottom row are all fantastic middle grade reads.

Ruthiella Nice stats! 👍 2w

Liz_M I loved the nesting stories technique of Cloud Atlas! 2w

Daisey @Liz_M It took a while for me to get into, but by the end, I also loved how it was set up. 2w

Bear: A Novel | Julia Phillips

#12DaysofChristmas

Read during #CampLitsy which added to the enjoyment of this book that didn‘t quite make my #Top24in24.

My 2024 reading. Highlights for me were doing some deep dives for #FoodAndLit, reading all of the Station Eleven books in a row over a couples of weeks for #AuthorAMonth, reading around the world for #ReadingAfrica #ReadingAsia #ReadingTheAmericas and #ReadingOceania (none of which I have completed so I‘ll still be going in 2025), the hilarity of #HashtagBrigade, #CampLitsy, and numerous other challenges that have made my reading life so rich.

Shark Heart: A Love Story | Emily Habeck

Beyond excited to dig into the amazing @monalyisha 's #AuldLangSpine list in the new year! I've read (and largely loved) 6.5 (didn't finish Bear during #CampLitsy due to time, not disinterest!), including the tagged, which I read because it was on @Deblovestoread 's #AuldLangSpine list for 2024! 🦈❤️ Quite a few others were already on my TBR. Feeling lucky with these titles to choose from!

BarbaraBB Such a great list! 3w

Christine @BarbaraBB It really is! I love how she separated the fiction and non, too. 3w

monalyisha I love your graphic! Any inclination about where you‘ll start? 3w

Christine @monalyisha I‘m not sure!! I‘m kind of leaning toward your reread bonus pick because somehow I have not yet read Wintering despite intending to since it came out! Also considering The Comfort of Crows… 3w

monalyisha I‘d definitely go with Wintering! It‘s back on the bestseller list, having its moment in the cold yet sparkling sunshine. It‘s my favorite on the nonfic list, followed by the two at the top of that section. I think I‘ll probably start with a fic pick from yours since I‘m scrambling to finish a nonfic book at the moment. 3w

Christine @monalyisha Sold! I‘ll start with that and hope you find a novel that fits your mood on the list! 3w

The New Rooster | Rilla Alexander

#TOBwaiting

In a recent post of @BkClubCare we‘ve been guessing about the ToB longlist, which will be published sometime in November. I thought why not make the most of our anticipation and share the six books we hope to see on that longlist?

It‘ll definitely give us some inspiration for books to check out - whether they make the longlist or not.

These are mine, I hope you‘ll share yours!

Ruthiella Thanks for the tag! I‘ll take a crack at it! 🎶 It‘s the most wonderful time of the year 🎵 Rooster time! 🐓 3mo

Bookwormjillk I don‘t even know where to start, but I‘ll give it a try! 3mo

Hooked_on_books I like this idea, but like the others, I‘ll have to think about this a bit. I notice 5 of your books seem to have a color scheme theme. 3mo

Bookwormjillk What are the guidelines for the tournament? Is it anything published in 2024? 3mo

CatLass007 Thanks for the tag. What does #ToB stand for? Several of these books are on my wish list. 3mo

cariashley Yay, I‘ve been waiting for TOB news! I‘m hoping to get back into it this time after not being able to do it last time (life…). Will have to think about this! 3mo

Suet624 I rely solely on other Litsy recommendations and you all have never steered me wrong. 3mo

BarbaraBB @Bookwormjillk Yes! Just books published in 2024. All choices are arbitrary as they say themselves! 3mo

BarbaraBB @CatLass007 You can read all about it here: https://www.tournamentofbooks.com/about 3mo

Bookwormjillk @BarbaraBB thanks! I wasn‘t sure if they removed the books from Camp TOB but couldn‘t find anything on their website. I‘ll have to go back to my #CampLitsy lists to see what I missed. 3mo

BarbaraBB @cariashley I hope you‘ll be there again, we‘ve missed you! 3mo

AmyG Thanks for the tag! I need to think about this. 3mo

Susanita I‘ll have to think about it too… 3mo

squirrelbrain Exciting! I‘ll post mine later (or tomorrow…. Or the weekend!) ❤️ 3mo

Cathythoughts These all look good. I must investigate 👍🏻♥️ 3mo

Larkken Ooh, fun! I‘ll have a snoop… 3mo

sarahbarnes Fun list and fun idea! 😃 Mina‘s Matchbox is definitely on my list of books I‘m excited to read. I tried reading If Only recently and couldn‘t get into it, but I think it was just me at the time because I loved her other book. 3mo

BarbaraBB @sarahbarnes Wow, you did try If Only already! I just discovered its existence 🤩. But I loved her other book too so I have high hopes. I hope it just wasn‘t the moment to start it for you 🤞🏽

Is Mother Dead

sarahbarnes Honestly I think I had a book hangover from Intermezzo when I tried to start it. I‘ll likely try again. 3mo

Deblovestoread Thanks for the tag! Will give it some thought! 💜 3mo

CatLass007 Thank you for the link! 3mo

Meshell1313 Ooh fun! I think James for sure will make the cut! 3mo

Chelsea.Poole Very exciting! This will be fun! 3mo

Chelsea.Poole Also, great guesses! I really want to read Liars. I‘m on hold for the audio. 3mo

dabbe Thanks for the inspiration! 🤩😀🤗 3mo

Caroline2 Ohhh exciting!! 😃 3mo

BkClubCare Oh MY!! 👏😆🎉 3mo

CarolynM All the books on the ToB list are usually new to me. I‘ll have a look at these that you have chosen🙂 3mo

Megabooks Liars made me so angry!! I think you‘re right on target with Fruit, and I enjoyed it. I checked out Mina‘s again today. Hopefully I‘ll get to it this time!! 2mo

Butter: Roman | Asako Yuzuki

I started this 4 months ago for #camplitsy but set it aside. I‘m picking it back up in hopes of finishing it this time. And yes, I know it was not universally appreciated by the readers back then but I am nothing if not contrary, so here‘s hoping I enjoy it!

TheBookHippie 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😅😵‍💫 3mo

BarbaraJean I didn‘t necessarily enjoy it, but I found it fascinating!! Hope it‘s a good read for you! 3mo

BarbaraBB I liked it! 3mo

CogsOfEncouragement I‘m really appreciated this one. Enjoy! 3mo

Bookwormjillk I liked this one! 3mo

mcctrish I‘m glad I read it and it has to be finished to be appreciated imo 3mo

dabbe I just finished a couple of weeks ago for #camplitsy! 😂 3mo

kspenmoll I was ambivalent at first but I ended up liking the book, glad I read it. 3mo

Suet624 I liked it. Of course I‘m now trying to remember how it ended. 3mo
