Another good one in the series. Only a couple left. This one ended with a bigger cliffhanger than normal. So I will likely move on to the next one and keep enjoying the Christmas/New Years break. Happy 2026!

Another set of quirky book data that I record is setting. This year more than half the books I read took place primarily in the US or the UK. Of the rest, 12 were set in many places or nowhere, and six were set in some fantasy realm.
The book that took place closest to my home was Inner Harbor, set almost entirely in Maryland.
The book that took place farthest away, if not in terms of actual distance then in remoteness, is Wild Dark Shorep.
I hadn't updated my bracket since June so it took me a little while to figure out the rest of my favorites and find my 2025 winner.
I feared this would happen, that either Wood or Marsons would be on the list twice. At least this is another series, so it doesn‘t really count, does it? Anyway, one of the best series and authors ever ❤️ #12BooksOf2025
My September pick for #12BooksOf2025
Karin Slaughter is one of my favorite authors and I‘m really excited about this new series!

pickI liked this paranormal mystery about an inheritance and very sad family trauma. Watch your expectations for this one, though connected to the headless horseman story, it is very different. Also this is not a romance, which I actually appreciated. I liked our characters who are definitely flawed and there was a solid mystery. I did guess the villain fairly early, but I still enjoyed the journey. 4⭐️
Woohoo #bookspin done!
My September Favourite: Too Old for this.
This is one of those books that came just at the exact right time for me.
I was recovering from surgery, and feeling a bit low. Then this book came along and made me giggle and forget about the world for a while.

#bookspin 2025 wrap up
Welp. Its been a year. I didn‘t do so well at reading my bookspin picks, only 3/12. Still, I had lots of fun playing.
Kicked off the new year with this library book. I‘m 12% in on my Kindle and don‘t know what the hell is going on—and I love it! It grabs you by the throat right from the beginning and it hasn‘t let up yet!
