Let's hit those reading goals! Follow along on my new year, new reads! In this list I'll break it into three sections, books I'd recommend you read fast, maybes, and books that are a hard pass.

Character-driven end-of-the-world stories that focus more on love, memory, and humanity than explosions.

These books are my absolute favorite books, winning my five star review spot on Storygraph. As someone who's read hundreds of books throughout life, I've only given about 50 books a five star rating. This list will grow over time as I (slowly) find more five star reads. Currently this list includes many genres: from fantasy, sci-fi, true crime and data driven non fiction.

Fantasy worlds that are richly built, emotionally resonant, and unforgettable — perfect for readers who want magic and depth.

Follow along with my reading journey through 2025. I am mainly a fiction (sci-fi and fantasy) reader, but have been known to branch out into historical fiction, nonfiction, and biographies. This list includes everything I have read throughout the year!

I visit Florida at least once a year if not more to go visit a dear friend. This is a list of all the excellent finds we've come across from nature trails, to restaurants, to video game bars.

These are all the resources I used to pass the PMP and CAPM on the first try. 📚 This includes everything from books to courses to apps. I did a lot of research before taking the path I took.

Whether you're looking to get a dog, a new pup parent or well into your pup parenthood, this list includes many key items that your dog (and you) will love. I use all of these recs with our dogs, but also with all of our foster pups.

As someone who games as a hobby AND their career, I spend a lot of my time using my gaming related gear. I'm a PC and console gamer with a love for a wide variety of gaming genres. If I love a gaming accessory, it'll appear here.

Well, let me show you! I'm a crocheter and sewist who dabbles in embroidery and punch needle as well as many other crafts. Here you can find my list of solid items for many crafts.

Whether you're traveling for work or having some fun at a convention, you're on your feet all day. You don't want to carry a lot, but you need your key items within reach at any moment. Here are my recs. I have traveled to many conventions for work and pleasure, but a lot of these items are staples for standard travel too.
