2024 Books Read

My rating guide:

1 star = did not finish

2 stars = I struggled to finish/would not read again

3 stars = It was a decent read.

4 stars = Great book

5 stars = Awesome book

*I also did ranges between each like "2.5 or 2.75" if I wasn't sure if it was a solid 2 or 3.  

This year I will be doing something different by listing books I read by month and in the order in which I read them. Also, my teenager gave me a goal of 200 books and anything counts! It doesn't matter what genre or age range so you will see children books and more on this year's list!
