I had a great year and read some amazing books! So without further ado, some stats and rankings…

I read 102 books in 2024 and I gave the books an average rating of 3.38 stars. I averaged 8.5 books a month, and read the most in April, October, November, and December with 11 books each. I read a total of 36,403 pages and I read on 137 days!

It is difficult to choose a favorite author each year, which is why I opted for my most-read authors this year. Some of my favorite authors, like Stephanie Garber and Sarah J. Mass, did have books come out this year that I loved, but it was a blip on my reading stats.

For most read author honorable mentions I have Ali Hazelwood with 3 books and an average rating of 4.3 and Bailey Hannah with 3 books and an average rating of 3.3.

My top 3 most read genres of 2024 were:

1. Romance, 39 Books

2. Thriller, 21 Books

3. Romantasy, 10 Books

And as for how I read, I read:

1. 46 Physical books

2. 29 E books (Libby, Kindle Unlimited and Purchased E Books)

3. 27 Audiobooks (Libby, Audible and Everand)

My Favorite quote of the year is from page 7 of Carrie Soto is Back by Taylor Jenkins Reid:

“You were not born that person. You were born to become that person”
