Happy Year in Books! Dragon's Library Year in Review 2025

It's not quite New Year's but it's close enough.

This year I was much more intentional about reading even though I'm still addicted to my phone. And I don't know what it is about the month of August that seems to have made me forget that books even exist lately. I'll probably read at least one more book this year, but likely one I've read before and I try not to double blog books. So actually, I've read more than 80 books this year. Plus often I read picture books at work and they don't strike me enough to think about blogging them later. 

Books I Blogged in 2025

Picture Books                4

Middle Grade/YA         19

Nonfiction                     6

Graphic Novel              21

Memoir                         10

Novel                            13

Poetry                           1

Short Stories               5

Total                            80


Aside from all the graphic/middle grade/YA novels (which I go through a lot of because I'm in a children's library 5-10 hours a week) I read a surprising number of memoirs. There were actually more than 10 because some of the memoirs I counted under graphic novels. Most of these memoirs were about complicated relationships between mothers and daughters. I eat that stuff up.
