I don't know what I wanted to see from this thread, but apparent this was it!

I am happy you have (delete as applicable): fallen in love with reading (again?) / trying something new this year / found your genre / found a better life balance / found solace in books in a bad time / enjoying reading now you're in a good space / recently been given a lot of books

Tried to cover my bases, but I'm sure I'm wrong anyway. XD life's just like that.

I'm in a reading slump this year as work/life balance has been terrible. I'm optimistic about next year though.

Anyway, happy reading!
