Where do I even begin. Very little surprises me about why the holidays get canceled for me. Working retail, the last two months of the year is an absolute shit show. Ranging between customers complaining about sales to now ring worm kittens, celebrations have never been a good time. Yes I am a full on scrooge, but after 5 years of this nonsense, who wouldn’t be?
Looking at my books bring both excitement at the prospects of reading them and reviewing them, and the dread of reading them and reviewing them. I am struggling to think of this as a fun process for my mental well being and as a distraction from this hell scape holiday season.
I think I will be doing a number generator for selecting the twelve books, doing it by the shelves. I’m gonna focus primarily on physical books for the twelve of the year. I have a shit ton of Mangas and will exclude though from the series just because I know how manga and web comics work. Some of them are never ending.
Now on this mess of a book shelf I counted 80 books ((I could have sworn I had more – maybe that’s what I get for not counting the Mangas ha)). I have read a handful of them already so I’ll exclude those ones if the number lands on them

So I’m gonna go through a number generator!
I’m excited for the 12 books of 2026 so wish me luck its something good!
