I really need to figure out how to read Rachel Aaron books in a way such that I stop partway through and sleep

Wanted to do something for the new year, so I guess I'll do a 2023 book wrap up. In chronological order from the beginning of 2023 to the end.

Putting in a read more because this is 90 books and that's too much to not hide it.

Okay, and according to Storygraph:

My longest book was Three Axes to Fall at 806 pages

My most read authors were: Tamara Pierce, Martha Wells, and Rachel Aaron. Which is due to re-reads. I re-read 16 books this year.

My average rating was 4.14 out of 5.

I read the most in June.

I read 41 new-to-me authors.

52 of the books I read were part of series.

So, I guess, feel free to ask me any questions.

Happy New Year!

Hi I’m the guy who wrote the fluffy baby dragons post. Have you read the first book of the DFZ Changeling series?

Not yet! I just INHALED the Heartstriker series, like, 5 books in 3 days and I have neither slept enough nor paid a remotely responsible amount of attention to my day job that whole time. I’m excited to read the sequel series(s) at a somewhat calmer pace!
