Now that 2025 is ending what has been your favorite book you've read in the last year?

Mine is Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir (audiobook is the way to go!)

Lesser known: Bury Your Gays by Chuck Tingle. Satire Horror. It was a fun ride.

All Sinners Bleed (mystery noir) by S.A. Cosby and My Friends by Frederik Backman are also my notable mentions

Just finished Strange Houses, a Japanese horror themed, interview and conversation style novel.

A psychological story with lots of twists and unsettling situations. I immersed myself in the world and the story is believable as could be real.

It's a quick read under 200 pages with some pictures but I loved it.

I'm now going back to his first book Strange Pictures and will probably pick up Strange Buildings when it comes out.
