January Books: 1/5 (Rose/House) Now that we’ve got last year’s reading stats out of the way, we can talk about 2026 and goals and whatnot. As you guys know if you were here over the last year, 2025 was rough,
2025 Reading Stats
Happy new year, squiders! I hope you’re off to an encouraging start! It’s time for my yearly reading stats post, which is interesting to me and maybe no one else, but I like numbers and so here we are. Books
Okay, Maybe We’ve Overdone the Mysteries
December Books: 4/4 (Edited Out and It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Mischief) Howdy, squiders. We’re a week out from Christmas, so that’s a thing. I could probably use a few more stocking stuffers, but we’ve reached a point

Shannara Readthrough: A Knight of the Word
Howdy, squiders. Hope you’re doing well. I’ve finally finished the next book in my Shannara readthrough (I read the last book–technically the first book chronologically–in spring of 2022. Making excellent progress, she says sarcastically.) and thought we should probably talk
