I Read 8 Books in January — Here Are 4 Worth Your Time
Discover the must reads from my January 2025 reading list as well as the ones I do not recommend.
Isn’t it a relief to get through one of the hardest months of the year? I’m never one to wish away time, but with the evenings starting to get lighter here in the UK, and the sun when it does decide to come out feeling a little warmer, there’s a sense of hope in the air.
January was a bit of an up-and-down month for me. I unexpectedly got offered a new job, struggled to motivate myself at times, and still didn’t get around to starting the editing of the novel I finished last year. However, reading remained a priority.
It’s safe to say it was a bit of a mixed month for me, as my most anticipated read of the year, Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros fell short of my expectations whereas others took me by complete surprise. Luckily, out of the books I got through this month, I’m here to tell you what’s worth reading, and what’s not.
