Another buddy read that was abandoned. May return to. 

The Goldfinch

Donna Tartt

DID NOT FINISH: 37%

I may have continued with this one but it was a buddy read and we decided to move on to something else. It felt a little exhausting, honestly.

Zombierella: Fairy Tales Gone Bad

Freya Hartas, Joseph Coelho

DID NOT FINISH: 38%

I estimate I only listened to about ⅓ of this audiobook. Grabbed it from my online library catalogue when I was in the mood for something silly and unchallenging but the narration put me off.

My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry

Fredrik Backman

DID NOT FINISH: 32%

This was a soft DNF that I do plan on returning to, in the future. I was enjoying it but, ultimately, books that I felt more passionate about were prioritised. 

Krampus: The Yule Lord

Brom

DID NOT FINISH: 17%

I just wasn’t in the right head space for something that felt so violent and gritty, when I started this. I may return to it next year but I’m not sure. 

The Hunting Party

Lucy Foley

DID NOT FINISH: 70%

Rough estimation of how far I got. I put this audiobook on when I couldn’t sleep, purely because it was seasonal, but ultimately I listened to it on and off and didn’t enjoy what I did hear.

Written in the Stars

Alexandria Bellefleur

DID NOT FINISH: 62%

I started this one when I was feeling delicate and didn’t feel comfortable reading my usual genre (horror) but, alas, romance just isn’t for me. It’s more of a soft dnf, I may return to it in the future because the characters were likeable enough. 

Nana

I didn’t check the TW’s
and don’t want to read sexual assault scenes, even if they’re with demons, for entertainment
. After getting this far and looking up what’s to come, I’ve decided that this book isn’t for me.
