V. excited to see what’s in my Library Takeout order next month.
I requested gothic novels published in the last ten years, which is one of this year’s #ReadHarder challenges (and not a genre I’m familiar with); I also cited preference for picks that feature and/or are written by women. #librarysky

I don’t often read comics, but I picked this up for #ReadHarder and it’s another reason why I love the annual reading challenge; I’ve been introduced to so many authors over the years - and in this case, a new genre as well (graphic journalism). #booksky @bookriot.bsky.social

I'm three books away from finishing two reading challenges this year:
#ReadHarder by @bookriot.bsky.social that I've been taking annually since 2018
and #DecolonizeYourBookshelf (more of a journey) by @paperbacksfrybread.bsky.social which I enjoy even though I've never completed it yet. (YET!)

Stormy A story about finding a forever home By Guojing
A very cute children's comic about, as the tagline says, finding a forever home. Read for the #readharder challenge and I loved it! 9/10 💙📚

The Devil and Sherlock Holmes Tales of Murder, Madness, and Obsession David Grann Author of The Lost City of Z Shortlisted for the Samuel Johnson Prize
While the first few stories caught my attention, true crime is just not my thing and by the end I was ready to be done. Impressive journalism that would perhaps appeal to others more. 4/10 💙📚

7. Read a book about a piece of media you love: Be Ready When the Luck Happens by Ina Garten
Really enjoyed Garten’s chaotic antics (who knew?!) in her young adult years. Last chapters felt flat, but overall a great read for any fellow Barefoot Contessa fan. Store-bought is fine.

24. Pick a 2015 Read Harder Challenge task to complete: Private Equity by Carrie Sun (audiobook)
In a most apt pairing, Sun’s memoir was covered for @newyorker.com by Uncanny Valley author Anna Wiener. Can’t add to an already perfect review except to say it does Sun’s work justice.

@lmansley.bsky.social inspired me to share my 2025 Reader Harder picks:

Last months listens. Gretchen Witmer's book was short and GOOD! Amanda Jones' That Librarian takes a hard at right wig book banners attacks on innocent people. There were tears.

Trying to find a new book to start — 1 hour later I have a pile of books to read for Black History month, a pile that will fulfill Read Harder 2025, a pile of “others” and a pile to get rid of. And an inkling of what to read next. Just me?
