We're half way through the year, and so far it's been a pretty productive reading year for me. I'm something like 13 books ahead of schedule on my Goodreads reading challenge goal, having now read 38 of the 52 books I pledged to read in 2023. At least, that's how it stands at the cut-off point for this post.
Anyway, since I keep forgetting to post what I’ve been reading each month, I thought I’d catch you up on what I read during the first half of the year all in one post. Though I’m not going to include my ratings and reviews, or the post will get way too long. So, if you want to know what I thought of a particular book, you can either check out my reviews over on Goodreads (which you don’t need to be a member of to see my reviews) by going to my Goodreads page, or ask me about it in the comments section of this post or something.
There's quite a variety of genres on the list, such as historical, classics, mystery, children's stories, poetry, fantasy, paranormal romance, and post apocalyptic, for example. In other words, this post is a perfect example of how diverse and eclectic my reading tastes are.
Anyhow, here’s what I’ve read so far this year, whether for book clubs, because I was given a copy in exchange for an honest review, or just because I felt like it, in the order I read them.

I used to read like that--lots and a variety of genres. Nowadays I would have a long list of movies and series. I consume as much, but in a different form--lol!
That is a long and impressive list. Well done!

Well, as long as you enjoy the way you consume it, that's what matters. LOL!
Thanks, Jeanie.
