I got the year started off right. Reading 10 books is a strong start to 2025 and I enjoyed several in different ways. It was almost hard to pick just three for this month, but I managed it. Two of these are even the first in a series, so there is plenty to read if you enjoy them.

Apocalyptic – Determination – Family
The polar ice caps have melted and New York City has flooded to the point of almost extinction. Nonie and her family lived in the Museum of Natural History as long as they could and then set out in a boat to find a place they could be safe and dry. There is much tragedy in this book and it is mostly sad, but there is hope, however small.

Fantasy – Girl Power – First in a Series
Durst has become one of my favorite authors lately. With her nature based fantasy stories, you can feel her love for the earth and for great stories. This is the first in The Queens of Renthia Series. These stories feature Champions and bravery that is necessary in a world full of danger.
