Welcome, everyone! 😺
Sometimes there are cool book tags and challenge in different blogs, and I miss on those, but I saw this one! The 2025 Reading Firsts Book Tag, and here we are!
Originally by Pam – ReadBakeCreate, or that is what I gathered, but I first read it on jillianthebookishbutterflyblog.
Now, be patient, I have a terrible memory at times and I don’t always add books on Goodreads after, during, or before reading them, and sometimes I re-read books I love and that makes it confusing for me. 😂 But I’ll try to keep it clear.
First Book Read in 2025

Beautiful Burn
Actually, I started in 2024, but I finished in January and was eager to jump onto the next one to finish the series, half really interested in it, half: what is going is these books?
First Review of 2025

Well, clearly the first review would be for Beautiful Burn. It was still fresh in my mind, so I wrote down all about it. A 4 – Stars, but still good enough.
First Debut Read in 2025

Sunrise on the Reaping
Is that considered debut? Well, it was a new book in March, fresh from the oven and into my hands. And not a debut from the author, but still a pretty new one.
I’m counting it. 😂
First “New to Me” Author of 2025

For the sake of this tag, let’s say he is an author that I didn’t know. Well, I only knew him as an actor, and I haven’t done the book review of Beyond the Wand: The Magic & Mayhem of Growing Up a Wizard. But that was the newest to me Author. Even if this is an actor biography.
First Book of 2025 That Slayed Me

Sunrise on the Reaping, of course!
You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll curse. But yes, I thought I was fine by the end of it, and then ended up having a week worth of flashbacks and constantly thinking of what I have read.
First impressions though, it is here on the blog.
First Book of 2025 that I Wish I Could Get Back the Time I Spent Reading It

None from 2025.
First 5-Star book of 2025

Sunrise on the Reaping, lol. Of course this book would take the crown.
Actually, on Goodreads it is A Beautiful Funeral, because I couldn’t give it 4.5 – Stars there.
It is still early in the year, but it was fun remembering the books I have read so far, which are more than this, and I realised that I’m missing some reviews on the blog. For Tom’s book and for an Eternal Mates one that I finished last week. And I’m currently reading Eternal Mates book 17 so that’s another one that is coming soon.
That’s all from me, dearies! Don’t miss out on other cool book challenges that I have done in the past, and new ones that are coming soon. You can follow the blog for more. 😊
Thank you for stopping by, and if you have read some of these or are looking for new books, let me know in the comments, always happy to hear from you. 📚
