2024 Book RoundUp

This year hasn't been my worst year in terms of numbers. That award goes to 2023 with 55 books. This year I had 81 books read (or listened to) including two re-reads on my birthday. Unfortunately, I have 24 reviews to write, so you'll see many without links for now. Eeek! I'm hoping to whittle that number down in the next few days or so.

2024 has been another year to remember and not in a good way. Early in the year I discovered some shit about my husband and decided enough was enough. Though he didn't know that until October when things came to a head and I kicked him out.

Anyway, 81. Not as bad a year as I thought I would have only because I started listening to audiobooks from Chirp when driving my son to and from work. About 45 minutes a day (M-F and some Saturdays) when I'm alone in the car.

33 audiobooks

35 tour books (mostly BBNYA & The Write Reads)

3 from Red Adept Publishing. I miss you, RAP!

I intend to catch up on my RAP backlog in 2025.

It's been a pretty good year in terms of quality,

with 55 of the 81 rated 4 bites or above.

5 bites ~ 10

4 bites and a nibble ~ 25

4 bites ~ 20

The Legendary Mo Seto ~ Book Tour Review

Mo Seto, martial arts movie star! Has a nice ring to it doesn't it? If only there wasn't a height restriction to audition. But 12-year-old Modesty (Mo) Seto has never let her height get in the way before, not when she became a black belt, or when she fought the meanest boy in her class, and she's not going to let it stop her this time! Now if only she can figure out a way to grow five inches and fool everyone at the auditions... Join Mo on an adventure (and audition) of a lifetime and find out if powerful things really do come in small packages!
