About This Video

In this cozy little sit-down, I’m revisiting the 25 books I said I wanted to read in 2025… and being very honest about the ones that simply did not happen. I walk you through the eight titles that fell off my radar, what my reading year actually looked like, and the very real reasons a ā€œplanned TBRā€ can start strong and then quietly disappear once life, mood reading, and seasonal cravings take over. For each skipped book, I chat through the vibe I thought I’d be in, what I ended up reaching for instead, and whether I’m still excited about it—or if it’s more of a ā€œmaybe somedayā€ situation. If you’re someone who loves setting reading goals but also wants permission to pivot, this is basically your gentle reminder that it’s okay to reassess. The whole point is to romanticize adulthood one chapter at a time… not stress-read your way through a list.
