January 2026 Wrap Up

How are we already into February?!

January was a very typical month as far as reading goes. In 2024 I didn’t have any 5-star reads, and the same held true. Maybe I’m just not that great at picking out books at the start of the year, lol. I did a few audio books but most were e-books on my Kobo, the two self-help were audio books from my local library.

The Emily Wilde book was for the Goobers book club, and I didn’t actually get around to my ‘Books out of the Blue’ challenges, but I’m hoping to make up for that this month. I did work on my TBR, which is where A House with Good Bones comes in – but I thought it would be a 5 star read, and it was not. Through no fault of the author, it just wasn’t the book for me (details are posted in my regular reviews). As always these statistics are taken from my profile over on The StoryGraph, which I am using as an alternative to GoodReads.

Still, I’m counting 7 books as a huge win. I have some fantastic reads lined up for February, so maybe that elusive 5 star will be uncovered then. Happy reading!
