Betches Booklist: Crush Your 2025 Goodreads Challenge With These New Books And Old Classics
1 user likes this"Ah, January. The month where we all collectively lie to ourselves about becoming better people. [...] But among all the ambitious self-improvement goals, there’s one that feels simultaneously achievable and aspirational: becoming a reader. We all know the goal: You picture yourself curled up in a cozy nook with a cup of tea, effortlessly flipping through pages of something smart and profound. You’re that girlie who can casually drop, “Oh, I just finished the most fascinating book about [insert intellectual topic here]” into conversation. But then reality hits, and suddenly you’re scrolling Instagram [...]. Here’s the good news: you don’t have to read 100 books or join an annoying book club to earn the title of “reader.” You just need the right books to fit the kind of reader you want to be. [...] Whether you’re going for “literary intellectual” or “romance novel enthusiast who still has depth,” I’ve got you covered." -Syeda Khaula Saad for The Betches
