The mattries37315 reading thread of 2025

Hello everyone and Happy New Year,

My first book of the year is The Shaping of America by Page Smith, which will be read at breaks at work.

I goal is to read at least 40 books this coming year and you can check out which books from my ever expanding shelves I hope to get through this year in my 2025 Reading Plan post linked below.

Thanks >2 Bookmarque: and >3 clamairy:

>1 mattries37315: That looks like a heavy reading plan. May it bring you much satisfaction and knowledge, and may your year be blessed with health and happiness.

Happy 2025 and may you fulfil you reading plans.

Happy New Year and happy reading!

Happy New Year! Happy New Thread, I wish you lots of good books :)

>5 MrsLee:, >6 pgmcc:, >7 Narilka:, and >8 Alexandra_book_life: Thank you and hope you all enjoy your reading this year as well.

>1 mattries37315: Happy New Year and new thread! You have an impressive reading plan lined up. I'm intrigued with your selections especially in history and philosophy/political science. I enjoy those last two topics very much, but mostly in college - group discussions were fun.

Enjoy! I'll look forward to your reviews!

Happy New Year and happy new thread! I like your reading plan!

>10 terriks: Thanks. Yeah, it took me a while to get the two history series whole from the used book store I visit every month. And it made sense to read them chronologically together as I go through a history of the United States.

>11 Karlstar: Thanks.

>12 mattries37315: Absolutely. I prefer a chronological approach when reading history, too. Seems easier to gel names, dates, places together as time periods pass.

Happy reading!

Happy New Year and Happy new Thread! I hope you have a great year, in books and in life.
