The Gentle Chapter

October 2025 Wrap-Up

—

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to my second full months’ worth of reading!

As you can see, I was 3 books short of my reading total from last month but I still averaged two books a week so that is still alright in my book 🙂 Hopefully we can push past this in November!

My favorite book I finished this month was ‘Spurs and Sparks’ by Jody Hedlund. I loved the heavy romance with the beautiful Colorado setting. The characters felt realistic and those innocently spicy moments were quite swoon worthy. Though the sequel is not high up on my TBR, I may have to skip over to it since I really want to read the love story of another of the brothers. I would say ‘Legends and Librarians’ by Pandora Pierce is an obvious second place.

All of my reviews from this month:

● About Me

Hello! I am Ashley and I simply love to read, and hope you do to!
I am currently 29 years old and living in the state of Texas, USA.

My favorite genres to read and review include romance, fantasy, mystery, and many subgenres of those as long as it is clean. I mainly get my books from my Kindle Unlimited membership, but I also found myself checking out library books on Libby as well.

As you can see, I do not solely post book reviews, I also love posting daily prompt writing, as well as stuff that is going on in my life currently. That being said, my passion is reading and reviewing books to my heart’s content, so hopefully that is something you are also interested in.

I do have a Goodreads where you can follow if you desire (no pressure!) I also have a StoryGraph, of which you can follow me here.
