This is the list of books I've read since 2020—an unapologetically eclectic mix, like a time traveler's library card. From ancient epics and Shakespeare to Victorian drama and nostalgic 80s–90s sci-fi and fantasy, it's a joyful collision of moods, book clubs, and spontaneous whims. One week it's Austen with tea, the next it's necromancers, space wizards, or philosophical detectives solving mysteries in surrealist dreamscapes. The list also dips generously into books orbiting Jane Austen's time—whether kindred in tone or in timeline.
Why such a quirky mix? Because I follow curiosity, not categories. These are books that comfort, challenge, surprise, and occasionally make me laugh at how wildly different they all are. So what can you gather from this messy list? That I read widely, weirdly, and with delight—and that I believe the best libraries are a little chaotic and a lot of fun.
