Welcome to Litsy!

Doing my best to read like my old self BD (Before Depression) and I'm hoping fun little challenges like #readingbracket2025 and #offmyshelf bingo will help. Spent a few hours making this bracket, which, it turns out, is a fun way to deal with anxiety. 🙃

The tagged book was my favorite of 4 reads in January 2025. For context, pre-2020, I used to read 12-15 books a month. Not gonna shame myself though. At least I'm reading.

January best book @Catsandbooks #readingbracket2025

I've decided to do a separate Romance #ReadingBracket2025 this year. It's always so hard to choose between a complex, world-building fantasy and a compelling, heartwarming romance. So I'm not gonna lol
In January I read this lovely romance series with great disability rep and gender exploration

January Nonfiction #ReadingBracket2025
This memoir was definitely a stand out

January Fiction #ReadingBracket2025
Thanks @MegaWhoppingCosmicBookwyrm for this bracket set up, I like the idea of having a bonus pick each quarter cause it's so hard to choose!
This month's favorite was this Pride and Prejudice murder mystery retelling. I'm reading the second in this series for the #JaneAustenThenAndNow S&S adaptation in February and couldn't stand to read them out of order lol, but I'm not complaining

I'm trying hard to read multiple books a month this year and hopefully I'll be able to follow through so I can complete a book bracket. It will be a small amount of books to pick from a month but still fun none the less. West with Giraffes by Lynda Rutledge was my favourite read in January. I will never forget the characters from this book.

Note: Not my template - off pintrest.
