Great taste! Some of these were definitely some of my top reads for 2024! I’ll have to add the others to my tbr

I will happily cosign on many of the books you picked here, but I have to say that I am currently reading Long Island Compromise on a whim after I found it on the "new arrivals" shelf at the library last week. What a wild book and I'm barely 25% of the way in! Somehow the last book I'm reading this year is likely going to wind up my favorite.

“Since deleting most of my social media, I have had so much time to read. I’m also coupling reading with things that give me joy, so I’m lighting that expensive candle, making that fancy tea, and eating the yummy Trader Joe’s cookies. It's a LITERAL RELAXING DREAM.” You’re an inspiration!! 😍😍😍
