My Reading List | Spring & Summer 2025
I am not the biggest reader but there is something about the spring and summer that makes me want to read and I typically read a book every week or so. Despite that I did still set the goal of reading 15 books in 2025 — andI have yet to finish the first one. But now that it’s spring and I am no longer a student I have been reading a lot more — and I am close to finishing my first book of 2025!
My current read is Happy Place by Emily Henry. I did start reading it at the end of December and (in April) I am still reading it. BUT I am very close to the end. Now that I have time during the day and am not having to do any reading for school, I have started to find reading fun again! And I have been reading because I can! Not because I have to.
As for the rest of the books on my reading list:
High Tide Club by Mary Kay Andrews
Unlikely Story by Ali Rosen
The Fall Risk by Abbey Jimenez
Beach Read by Emily Henry
Meet Me By the Lake by Carley Fortune
Just for the Summer by Abbey Jimenez
This Summer will be Different by Carley Fortune
Every Summer After by Carley Fortune
Book Lovers by Emily Henry
Funny Story by Emily Henry

A few things you may have noticed / some questions…
Yes, I am reading books by the same few authors — I am staying in my comfort zone for now. After this list is complete I will branch out a bit but for now, comfort zone.
Most of these books were popular on BookTok a while back. Yes! I am a slow reader! I bought hard copies of some of these books when they were popular and never got around to reading them lol. The books that I don’t already own a hard copy of I will be purchasing on my kindle to save a few bucks.
Most of these books are summer themed and that is because I read more in the summer than any other season.
How am I going to keep myself accountable? Great question! I have an instagram account @bymarywootton that I have created to document my hobbies! I will be posting reviews and updates there!
