#22 Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer
And if I told you this book transformed my soul….
In actuality, what an affirming, hopeful novel. And at the same time, I spent so much of the time yearning for my own ancestral knowledge — which is inaccessible to me due to… ya know. colonization.

#21 The Tenant by Freida McFadden
Ooh boy. This was a tough read but I couldn’t put it down. I kind of couldn’t stand anyone for most of the book, but was pleasantly surprised by the twists and turns. I will never get over the hair incident though — I’ve not gagged like that at a book in a while.

#16-20: Stevie Bell Mysteries by Maureen Johnson
I wish these books had been written when I was in high school purely for what they would have meant to me then. I enjoyed every second of this series in a way I haven’t enjoyed a book series since I was a teenager. What an absolute blast!

#15 Catching the Big Fish by David Lynch
Listened to this on a dinner break at work and was really inspired and also comforted. I miss David Lynch's presence on earth, and I'm so grateful that he left so much.

#14 Wild & Wrangled by Lyla Sage
I really enjoyed this one. I'm so sad to end this series, but I can't wait for the next. I'm going to be closely following whatever Lyla Sage does next.

#12 Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins
If I told you I actually enjoy the prequels to THG more than the main trilogy…
Part of this might be that I only read the trilogy for the first time very recently, but the worldbuilding and the lore in these books…. Phew. What a novel.

#11 The Final Revival of Opal & Nev by Dawnie Walton
This was a thrilling read. I don’t know how I missed it when I was on my historical fiction kick circa 2023, but I truly adored this book. The audiobook is heavenly, too. Just a brilliant piece of work. I want everyone to read it asap.

#10 Perfume & Pain by Anna Dorn
A hard read overall, but very interesting. I think the character growth written in present tense was thrilling to read, and led to my feeling compassion for the main character, far more than I had anticipated, which was refreshing!

#9 Lost & Lassoed by Lyla Sage
I will simply be thinking of “saddle up, baby” until I perish, I fear. This was simply a game changer to me. Gus Ryder, man of all time.
