Oh that is so sad, her books were such a joy to read.
Very sad about Sophie Kinsella, me and my mum loved her books
So sad about Sophie Kinsella. 
I loved the shopaholic series. They were a real laugh out loud read. RIP Sophie.
I loved the shopaholic series. They were a real laugh out loud read. RIP Sophie.I had the same resolution! I started with 120 on my Kindle TBR and currently have 92, so some progress however as I’ve read over 60 Kindle books this year I’ve not been totally successful!
My book record says I've read 164 books this year so far! 
I know last year I said I wanted to read less this year...
I read 160 in 2024. The addiction is real....
Next year I want to read up my bookcases and get rid of books I'm not feeling.

You are doing better than me, I started the year with 93 books, I’ve read 105, and somehow I’ve ended up with 110 left on my to read list!
I plan to do the same @Chocolategoggler as I have so many books to read.

I’ve done that this year. So far my best month was August where I read 19 more books than I bought and my worst month was November where I bought 10 more books than I read! At the end of November number-wise I had 5 less books on my tbr than the start of the year.I’ve read more books than ever this year but seem to have ended the year with more on my kindle. I did go in the library today and didn’t take out a book
I think I might have a count up of my unread books and keep a tally of how many I buy each month to see what the net gain or loss is next year (probably horrific gain and I’ll never do it again)
How do you all read so many! I find I never pay attention to an audio book, and only like to have one on the go at a time.
I haven't bought any Kindle books this year but have done a few massive charity shop trawls. My bookshelves were in a somewhat manageable condition this time last year, now they are packed to bursting. I reckon I've bought about 50 books this year but who can resist when the charity shop practically gives them away. I just love looking at them though, being around books, seeing them all lined up on the shelves just brings me so much joy and calm.
my game changer this year is not having to sit with my daughter for two hours plus while she went to sleep so I read all evening now. Oh and deleting tik tok
Huge thanks to @LaBlonde @mindlessness @wishiniwasskinny and @AllieBee for your suggestions for my Book Club 
I’ve added lots to the list!

Does anyone have any “weird book cover” recommendations for a theme?
You could try r/terriblebookcovers on reddit? Loads of suggestions there.
Ah see I’m the opposite. My son used to take ages to settle and then be up for hours through the night and I read loads on my phone while lying on his floor. Now he’s quicker at dropping off and although he is still up a lot through the night, it’s usually shorter stints so I don’t feel like I need to crack open the kindle app. My reading numbers dropped significantly when his sleep improved.my game changer this year is not having to sit with my daughter for two hours plus while she went to sleep so I read all evening now.

The new Thursday Murder Club book is finally waiting for me at the library !
ideas for festive reading !
