I started this challenge but so far I'm only 7 books in. 😬 I'm planning to play catch-up soon, I just have to set aside some time (maybe before bed) and really stick to it!

Ooh, that's smart, haha.
I just obtained a whole bunch of plays so I may read those to catch up. 😛 They're obviously much quicker reads than novels!

Has anyone ever read What If It's Us?
My work just did a bookclub with this as the book and I listened to the audio book - it was so amazing! Curious if anyone else has read it? My bookclub had mixed feelings on the ending, me being an odd one out a little and not liking the epilogue as much as the "ending" lol
P.S. If you haven't read it, I highly recommend it!! The audiobook was also fabulous - the voice actors for both parts (it's written from 2 perspectives that alternate) were absolutely wonderful. For my first audio book, I was very impressed!

Unsurprisingly, I've managed to read all of Goblet of Fire in three days...
Somehow, those books don't get old.

First off is finishing Nona the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir, and then finishing the Invisible Library series by Genevieve Cogman (I'm almost certain I misspelled her first name). After that, prolly read the Ink & Sigil books, and start on some Sarah J. Maas.

Wow, all of these sound really interesting! Nona the Ninth sounds pretty epic! The Invisible Library series sounds like an interesting mix of fantasy ad mystery! And the Ink & Sigil books sound like they'd be a good time. Would you recommend any of them?

I'll have to be better about tracking the books I read. Was trying to for a while, but I lost track.
Might have to see if I can do this next year as well. Don't think I'll hit 50, but I bet I can do at least 20.
I just have too many hobbies and too little free time to get through 50 books right now. >.>
