I read 12 books in February — and two of them made me consider lowering my standards.
Kidding. (Mostly.)
Overall, this was a strong reading month. Nine solid four-star reads, one five-star knockout, and two that just… didn’t hit the way I hoped.
Let’s start with the standout:
⭐ Adrift — the only five-star of the month.
Claustrophobic, brutal, and completely absorbing. I was tense the entire time. This one earned its place at the top.
The steady four-star stack? They’re impressive and really good. It was mix of that kept me entertained and turning pages. No regrets there.
And then the two three-stars:
They weren’t bad. They just weren’t memorable.
One was heavier than I expected.
One had a premise I loved but didn’t fully deliver for me.
I’m a generous reader. If I’m not enjoying something, I usually stop reading. So if it made it to the finish line, there was something there.
Still… not every book can be the one that takes over your brain.
February stats:
π 12 books

Overall verdict? A good month, but I’m greedy. I always want more five-star magic.
QOTD:
Did you have a book this month that should have been amazing but just wasn’t?
