December 2024 Wrapup!

Posted On December 23, 2024

Hi Readers! Here we are at the end of the year already! December has been the best month, full of family, reflections, and a good kind of busy to it. Anyway, all of this will be more in the 2024 Year in Review posts! As of this month, I read 4 books across 1038 pages in December!

~~BOOKS~~

~~The Official Taylor Swift The Eras Tour Book~~

I have been a Swiftie for over a decade. I know every song, every lyric, every tour, every outfit and basically anything about Taylor Swift that’s in the public domain. So, when my brother was coming home from US a week after this book was published, I asked (forced) him to get it for me. It has all these amazing photos from the Eras Tour and a few behind the scenes photos, some lyrics, and some words from the tour. My view is entirely biased. So, naturally I have rated The Official Taylor Swift The Eras Tour Book by Taylor Swift at 5/5 stars!

~~You Will Never Be Me by Jesse Q. Sutanto~~

I have read three books by Jesse Q. Sutanto, all of which were cozy mysteries. She introduced me to this genre, and I really loved reading those books. But, You Will Never Be Me

is different. It’s a gripping story revolving around the life of Influencers. It reminded me a little of this Korean Drama Celebrity. While it wasn’t cozy, it was interesting if predictable. I have rated You Will Never Be Me by Jesse Q. Sutanto at 3/5 stars!

~~Bone by Yrsa Daley-Ward~~

The last two books I read for the year were of course shorter ones, because I wanted to complete 50 books for the year. Bone is a poetry collection which was intense, reflective and really thought provoking. I have rated Bone by Yrsa Daley-Ward at 4/5 stars!

~~The Prince and the Dressmaker by Jen Wang~~

The last read of the year was a graphic novel, and what a beautiful one it was. I loved the artwork, the very sweet story and gender representation. I have rated The Prince and the Dressmaker by Jen Wang at 3.5/5 stars!

~~STATS~~

~~LIFE LATELY~~

My brother Ashwin is back home after 2.5 years, so it’s a grand one, with meeting everyone in the family, making his favourite foods, playing Badminton with cousins, going on a short trip and more! Another highlight was that I completed 100 days of continuously working out!!

I will be back in a few days with the Year in Review posts! Until next time,
