2025 books

Book recap bc I managed (barely!) to fulfill my goal of finishing 12 books this year. Goodreads tells me I read 4,000 pages with an average book length of 300 pages and an average rating of 3.7/5, which is... not bad for someone who hasn't really been feeling books. Most of what I read this year were by authors I haven't previously read, and most are some kind of Asian. Read 0 books/comics in Chinese (but not for lack of trying).

Also read a bunch of webtoons and indie oneshots (from Shortbox), but those are harder to quantify, so:

Run with the Wind (4/5), Straw into Gold: Fairy Tales Respun (3.5/5), The Invention of the Darling (4/5)
The Thursday Murder Club (3/5), Burning Houses & Hush Harbor (4/5), Goodbye My Princess (4/5)
Water Moon (2/5), The Ruthless Lady's Guide to Wizardry (4/5), A Forgery of Fate (3.5/5)
Julie Chan Is Dead (3.5/5), Sa Wala (no rating, just horror), Secrets of the Silent Witch vol1-7 (3.5/5)

I really like Run with the Wind--I should look up the English translation. Miura Shion is a delight.
