I'm fighting every urge to start this blog post by saying, "Dear Gentle Reader", it appears I've been watching far too many episodes of Bridgerton! But, hello there, how are you? I hope you are doing amazing!
It has been quite some time since my last blog post and oh, how I've missed writing on here. I've been dedicating a lot of time to posting consistently on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, and I've completely neglected posting here on the blog. But I want that to change so I'm getting back to it.
Over the last seven months, I've been doing a lot more reading, so I figured that my first post back from my hiatus would be sharing the list of books I've read so far in 2024. I find it's only right since the last post on my blog was a roundup of books I read in 2023.
My favorite book genres to read are romance and fantasy fiction. I'm such a creature of habit that I haven't ventured off into different genres but I am okay with that as I proudly consider myself an avid reader of romance and fantasy!
With that said, here is the list of books I've read in the first half of this year. I've also included my rating of each and at the end of this post, I've linked all the books in case you want to check them out for yourself!
Out of the 18 books I've read, 9 were rated 5 stars! I'd say that the first half of this year has been quite successful as far as good reads. I'm very much looking forward to what books I read and fall in love with in the remaining half of 2024.
Back in 2022, I started reading fiction books as a way to unwind and practice being present. Well, let me tell you that I have since fallen madly in love with reading fiction and I haven't been able to stop since.
So today, I thought it'd be fun to round up all the books I read in 2023 and share them and my thoughts on each with you!

It's been about two weeks since my last Instagram round-up and I'm thinking about making this a bi-weekly thing. So in this post I've linked the items featured in all of the posts from my primary Instagram account.
