[@MinaReads]

[@RambleMaven]

I def missed having content from you as consistently this past year, but i never could be mad someone has a life offline loll

[@binbin9196]

Good on you for conquering The Vegetarian. I would have dropped it. I can’t hang with books that I don’t vibe with.

[@MinaReads]

I’m a big believer in DNFs typically but I just kept hoping with that one that it would get better ❤️‍🩹

[@rebekah5452]

so glad youre back! definitely would love monthly wrap ups! happy 2025

[@MinaReads]

I'm glad to be back too 💖 happy 2025! I hope it is full of many 5 star reads for you.

[@lisajenny9]

[@MinaReads]

Thank you! Good luck on yours!

[@hannahollihan]

Good luck on your goals and here's hoping to a better reading year! 🥰You got this!!!!!

[@MinaReads]

Thank you!!!

[@chocolateoreo6489]

Aw, I love how honest and kind you seem! I’m sending you love, a great reading and life year in 2024❤

[@MinaReads]

Aww you're so sweet thank you very much and I'm wishing the same for you this year!

[@chocolateoreo6489]

@ Aw yes love, it’s true!! And thank you also, I hope we both bring in a lot of love this year, individually and with people we care about (:

[@Jen_Foster]

Hey Mina - been following you since 2020 and I'm excited to see your reading wrap-ups this year!! You were super helpful I got back into reading because you gave me so many great romance recs.

[@MinaReads]

Thank you so much! 💖💖💖 I'm so glad you've found some reading gems! And thank you for sticking with the channel so long omg it warms my heart

[@Amanda-ld7ge]

I feel the same way about the expanse series, the tv show is great, but the books are just okay. So far the best one I have read is nemesis games, for me it has to do with the isolated plots of each book. i want to see the crew! and it's awesome that storygraph allows you to make challenges, i will definitely be doing that. I also have a goal to read 10 classics this year so I'm excited to see which ones you pick up and recommend!!

[@alterVgo]

I'm doing a challenge on StoryGraph to read more backlist books (which overlaps nicely with my goal of reading books I already own). also and I might be misremembering but I think it was you who did a "fix my netgalley score" reading vlog once upon a time? would love to see another one of those!

[@MinaReads]

It was me omg you have a fabulous memory friend!

[@adrianasowell6609]

I'm happy your back!!!

[@MinaReads]

I'm happy to be back i missed you all!

[@BooksWaffles]

you're back!!!

[@MinaReads]

Omg hi Nicole!

[@pauieeepau]

I wanted to start a Bookstagram this year, and I even made a spreadsheet for my stats. Unfortunately, making the graphics bores me looool. 📚

[@_frijol]

My reading goals this year are to switch over to storygraph, read more cozy mysteries, finish some series, and to read four classics. (One for each season. Currently, I've finished Gatsby for winter, and have Hamlet planned for Spring, Anna Karenina for summer (!!) and Dracula for fall. 🖤 Rn I'm also planning to go hard into romance for February.

[@MinaReads]

I love that you're doing a classic for each season; such a great way to break things up!

[@lifeworthreading]

Happy 2025!! I hope we get to hear a lot from you this year 🥺🥰📚🪄

[@MinaReads]

Happy 2025! I'm so excited to be creating videos again

[@pam1256]

These sound like great goals for 2025! Looking forward to seeing how they progress throughout the year ❤

[@raquellepollock1566]

StoryGraph is the best! Good luck with your reading goals this year 🎉

[@MinaReads]

Wishing you a happy reading year and many 5 stars in your future!

[@indira2749]

I can’t wait to see your videos this year! I also have a similar goal for longer books and I’m kinda scared lmao

[@MinaReads]

Good luck! I'm kinda scared too but I have faith in us!💖

[@storiesandsadhbh4673]

❤❤ you got this

[@MinaReads]

Thank you bestie!!

[@SabrinaMSabrinasStories]

The Vegetarian is one of my lowest rated books ever - I should have DNFed as well! Always happy to see a video from you and looking forward to 2025! 🎉

[@whitedaylilies]

I also really love Storygraph! ❤

[@MinaReads]

It's just so fun to use!

[@throughherpages]

I also had my worst reading in July and my best in August lol- something in the air I guess

[@Heyjemm]

Been following you for a few years now, love ur vids! Excited to follow ur reading journey this yr My reading goal this year is read 10-15 books

[@reena3592]

My goal is to read over 25 books and read around 10,000 pages. Hoping that this reading year is better cause I felt like last year was sort of mid but half of it was cause I read books/series I really should have DNFed

[@gabbaray2013]

my reading goal this year is reading 20 books i physically own

[@MinaReads]

You got this! I hope you will update me when you hit your goal 😁

[@marthauhlig]

Hi! i also read more fanfiction than books in 2024 😂😂 this year i want to read more things that i love bc last year was mid for me which put me in a slump sending lots of love!! 💚💚

[@thecharlesbreakfast]

good luck on your reading goals! my goal this year is 48 books

[@MinaReads]

That's awesome, I hope you reach it!

[@starredpages]

I have my physical tbr challenge in my reading journal but never thought ti make a Storygraph challenge. Just did that. Also my Netgalley feedback ratio is also terrible

[@youwillneverknow7165]

Commenting for the algorithm cuz I'm glad you're back That's it, have a great day

[@MinaReads]

💖💖💖

[@missfrizzle1717]

I stuck with The Wishtress by Nadine Brandies just like you did The Vegetarian. It should be a criminal offense the level of boring The Wishtress is!!

[@josiealiyah1527]

I saw another creator on here make a reading goal of 12 books, one for each month. Honestly I think I will also share this reading goal because I feel so intimidated and overwhelmed when I don't meet my goal. I hope we both find new favorites this year! 🪻

[@MinaReads]

I think that's a great way to approach your reading goal! I hope you achieve it and find lots of five star reads!
