My Year in Reading
In 2025, I challenged myself to pick up a book more often than my phone. I set a very pie-in-the-sky goal of attempting to read 52 books this year, a number that greatly intimidated me. By year's end, I made it through 53! Fiction, Nonfiction, Memoirs, Graphic Novels, Short Story Collections... For the most part, it was an absolute pleasure and something I'm incredibly proud of. I'll put my Top 15 in the comments, and happy to add the whole list for anyone interested. Thanks to those who have inspired this journey, particularly @thestackspod , @nytbooks , @thebookerprizes , and my reading queen, @kaleigh_cronin . What books did you love this year? And what are you looking forward to reading in 2026? #Books #booksbooksandmorebooks #booknerd
We officially opened @deathbecomesher on Broadway one year ago, and it's been a dream come true. May it live forever! #SiempreViva #TakeASip #DrinkItIn
