That’s an awesome reading goal for 2024! It should be read in 2024 but, I'll make sure this awesome list should be ended in 2025. You’ve got a solid mix of sci-fi, adventure, and thrillers—definitely some page-turners in there. Iron Flame is on my radar too; curious to hear your thoughts on it!

Have you ever considered audiobooks for some of these? With stories as immersive as Jurassic Park or The Long Winter Trilogy, a well-produced audiobook can add another layer to the experience. The right narrator can bring characters to life in a way that even the best-written dialogue sometimes can’t. Plus, with audiobook publishing services making it easier than ever to bring books to a wider audience, it's a great time to explore stories in different formats!

Looking forward to seeing what else you pick up this year—good luck hitting 50!
