Overview

Well lookie, lookie here! We’re back for another year! That’s right friends! It’s another year of tackling that pile of books we’ve bought but haven’t yet read! Welcome to the #OwnedUnreadBooks2025 reading challenge! 

The goal is 25 (for 25) books from the books we own that have gone unread. Any book you already own at the start of 2025 or buy/are gifted in 2025 counts. BUT, let’s try to finish more than we add to the pile. 😀 

For a fun templates and a tracker, please see my pinned IG post (theritareads). If you share your progress on IG, please tag me (theritareads) and use #OwnedUnreadBooks2025
