technically 62/50 for the challenge bc GR didn't count the book i finished yesterday and i have 3 BBNYA books i couldn't mark as read yet until the winners are announced, so the authors don't know which reviewer is reading what.

really upped my audiobooks game this year!

and i still did quite a bit of MG/YA mostly as i've been looking for comp titles for my novel WIPs lol

most of my reads were also indie or small press which is important as an author tbh bc readers will see you a hypocrite if you keep pushing your books but all you read is trad and you don't support other authors hahaha

i did get some nice trad books for book tours this year, so there's that! i also don't go ALL indie bc i want to see the recent standards for trad as i do have stories i think would do better as trad than indie when i finally have them written lmao

i'll pop in my best of 2024 blog post link here too when i get it up (before the end of the year)

i think i'll also leave a screenshot here of the ratings so far for TPOR so i can see how that progresses next year, if any. since, you know, i'll step back from marketing and looking for readers/reviewers.
