Building Worlds and Filling Them With Magic

Last year’s list was ambitious. In my defense, I read A LOT of books, just like, only one of them was on the actual list. So, I will post a list that needs to be reviewed, books currently in progress, and the ones I have stacked up and waiting.

~This post contains affiliate links. If you’re interested in these books, please consider purchasing through the link provided. It gives me a little bit of Jeff Bezo’s filthy, filthy lucre because writing full time is expensive, and he doesn’t need the money for more joyrides in space. :-)~

Finished in 2022 that need to be reviewed

  • Finale, by Stephanie Garber
  • Our Crooked Hearts, by Melissa Albert
  • The Crimson Thread, by Kate Forsyth
  • Northanger Abbey, by Jane Austen (unabridged, and the audiodrama)
  • Once Upon a Broken Heart, by Stephanie Garber
  • Legendborn, by Tracy Deonn
  • Ramona, by Helen Hunt Jackson
  • Josefina series, by Valerie Tripp

In progress (I DO NOT LIKE reading more than one at a time, but 2022, amirite)

  • Tower of Ravens, by Kate Forsyth
  • The Silmarilion, by JRR Tolkien
  • A Feast for Crows, by George RR Martin
  • Bloodmarked, by Tracy Deonn
  • The Mysteries of Udolpho, by Ann Ward Radcliffe

  • Sea Spell, by Jennifer Donnelly

As with last year’s list, this is mostly to keep myself honest. But you’re welcome to keep up with me. What are your reading goals for 2023?
