Book 2 for 2026: "Orwell's Roses" by Rebecca Solnit. Part biography, part essay collection, maybe just beyond genre.

Grid of 52 Book Club ‘s 2025 Reading Challenge categories and the cover of each book that I read for each. Prompts all listed at https://www.the52book.club/2025-challenge-guide.
Set a goal of 80 books for the year and ended with 104, which is not my highest ever but pretty impressive considering it was one of my most difficult years emotionally and physically. Lots of 5⭐️ reads and lots of new authors thanks to the #52bookclubchallenge.

I just finished the audio version of Clap When You Land by Elizabeth Acevedo for the Told in verse prompt of the #52BookClubChallenge 5⭐️, highly recommend the audio version. Almost done with Tress of the Emerald Sea by Brandon Sanderson. My first read of his books and I’m it throughly.
52 Bookclub Reading Challenge template for prompt 2 - A character with red hair. I read The Lost Queen by Signe Pike and gave it 5 stars
This was actually a re-read. I read it ages ago and loved it, but then I never continued the series. Now I'm ready!
Great historical fiction with a hint of Arthurian legends and a strong female lead, inspired by real people and events. I loved it!
