I love the adult human you became! If you get a chance read my friend Patresa Hartman’s substack. I love her and her writing too.

I love this whole recap (I’ve added a few books you mentioned to my tbr for 2025!) but especially love the idea of keeping a list of sentences that resonate throughout the year. I’m going to add that into my reading routine for next year as well!

Love reading all of this! I kept some imperfect notes of quotes as I read this year too. I read a lot this year - 37 books! My top reads were:

Margo’s Got Money Troubles by Rufi Thorpe

We All Want Impossible Things by Catherine Newman

When You Care by Elissa Strauss

Tom Lake by Ann Patchett

Abortion by Jessica Valenti

My Inner Sky by Mari Andrew

Enchantment by Katherine May

A Living Remedy by Nicole Chung

I want to try that 5 word description that you linked to. Maybe I’ll do that in my reviews of books that I track in Story Graph this year.

Enchantment was one of my favorites a couple of years ago! I also really liked Nicole Chung's first book but hadn't seen this one!
