This is a list of the books I read and reviewed in 2024. I started off at a terrible pace because of my brain surgery in January but by April I was making up for it and did okay. Read lots of good stuff.
Each link takes you directly to my review of that book. Happy New Year!

Book Chatter 
I’m so glad you got your reading mojo back this past spring, Ti. Thank you for all of your reviews. I’ve added several books to my TBR list, thanks to you! Happy New Year!
Happy New Year! It’s going to be a great year for books. I have so many lovely review copies.
Hi Ti, You bounced back well and seemed to be reading a lot these last few months. I’m so glad you’re doing well since recovering from the surgery. You’re awesome. Happy New Year!
Thank you. Once I got going again I just kept going.
Great list! I got the Lonely Hearts Book Club for Christmas and hope to get to it sooner rather than later!
Happy New Year!
The Lonely Hearts Book Club is delighted but also a super quick read.
I loved snagging recommendations from your reads this year: The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store by James McBride; House of Cotton by by Monica Brashears; The Return of Ellie Black by Emiko Jean; The Search Party by Hannah Richell; Clear by Carys Davis; Small Things Like These by by Claire Keegan; and Of Human Bondage by W. Somerset Maugham.
I have several others I’m waiting for the library to get to me, including Orbital and some others. Really great reading this year. Glad you enjoyed Remarkably Bright Creatures – I read that and loved it.
Great!! So glad you found some books to check out.
