Hello hello, and welcome to Episode 132 of Life On the Brink!

It’s time once again for one of my favorite episodes of the year, the always-beloved “favorite-books-i-read-last-year” episode. I was fortunate in encountering so many 5-star reads in 2025, and it seems no book on this list is like another- though I can’t recommend this list of books enough. After ending last year in a bit of a busy-season reading-slump, I’m so excited to get back into a new year of books.

Now’s the perfect time to stack your TBR for the new year!

Plus, this week's Little Joy is a strike against SAD and I have a groovy new playlist that works for any social occasion.
