Reading Review 2025

2025-12-30

Earlier this year, I wrote a blog post where I outlined my reading plans for the year. I didn’t finish all of these books, but then I did read some others. 7 books (8.35 BEq.) in total this year:

  1. A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara, 720p (2.26 BEq.), finished January 6, 2025.1
  2. Notes from Underground by Fyodor Dostoevsky, 136p (0.43 BEq.), finished February 9, 2025.
  3. White Nights by Fyodor Dostoevsky, 82p (0.26 BEq.), finished May 11, 2025.
  4. Intermezzo by Sally Rooney, 454p (1.43 BEq.), finished June 14, 2025.
  5. Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky, 671p (2.11 BEq.), finished July 30, 2025.
  6. Hamlet by William Shakespeare, 289p (0.91 BEq.), finished December 19, 2025.
  7. In Dubious Battle by John Steinbeck, 304p (0.96 BEq.), finished December 26, 2025.

And there are a few books I’m still reading:

The first three I’ve been slowly making progress on throughout the whole year, but they’re not quite books you can just read for hours at a time; they require some more contemplation, in my opinion. So that’s an ongoing process.


  1. I read most of A Little Life in 2024 already, but didn’t finish before the end of the year. ↩︎
