January 1, 2026. BEST BOOKS OF 2025

 The Belle of the Book just celebrated 10 years. I honestly CANNOT believe its lasted this long. I just love reading/writing/talking about books so much and want to share the wealth. Hope you have enjoyed my reviews this year AND can't wait to read my new favorite books for 2026. Looking back over 2025--I've read at least 55 books and reviewed 25 of them. I wish I could review them all but there's just not enough time........maybe when I retire. These are my favorite books of 2025--in no particular order.
