omg I discovered the exact same thing you did with discovering my love of nonfiction (esp memoirs) through audiobooks! I only managed 2 memoirs in 2023 but have already listened to 2 just in january so hoping to a lot more nonfiction in 2024:) I had 20 out of 57 5 star reads in 2023 but also am very generous with my ratings haha
ahh i love seeing other people's reading stats! there's something so weirdly interesting about it! according to goodreads, i had ten 5 star reads in 2023 - some of those were 4.5 star reads though, that i rounded up!
I gave 18 5 stars last year out of 100 books. However, several are rereads that I teach every year and LOVE! Many other are non-fiction academic/religious reads. As far as new to me fiction, I did not give many. I think 7.
I don't usually rate my books at all but I'm going to try in 2024. But even the ones I have already rated I'm doubting those ratings as my mind fluctuates on my feelings day by day.
In 2023 I ended up with 39 five star books out of a total 266. 19 of those were either graphic novel, manwa, or manga, 7 of them were re-reads, only 1 non-fiction. I've noticed my ratings on average tend to be 1 five star out of every 10 books. Out of the 266, I had 19 DNFs that all ended up with either 1 or 2 stars as a final rating, 1 star if the book was awful, 2 stars if there were positive things about the book, just not right for me. 83,891 pages read, but this does include all the DNFs, and as the label states, I didn't actually read them entirely, so that number is slightly off. The VAST MAJORITY of what I read is audio books, which I think is the reason for the high totals. And for most manga, manwa, or graphic novel, I can get through those so quickly, several in one reading sprint.
i feel like i've had the same thing happen as you in regards to being more picky with fantasy i end up absolutely loving as i have read more of the genre. i only had 9 five stars last year out of a hundred books read and only one was a fantasy, even though it was my top read genre 😅
I gave out 10 5 stars in 2023, out of 59 books read. This is the same number of 5 stars as in 2022, but as I read 5 books more in 2023 than in 2022 I had hoped for at least one more 5 star.
I just saw that I only had 2 five stars out of the 38 books i read in 2023... That is very poor mostly since the two five stars are from authors I have read and loved from before. In other news I had 15 four stars... so not bad lol
I have given 31 books 5 stars in 2023 (this including the 4,5) out of 75 reads. It was a very good reading year for me ☺️
Love this video, but I was distracted by the print over your shoulder. Maybe I'm reaching but I see the top of Paul Mescal's head. 🤭

I ended up with 10 five stars! But I did read HOEAB and Queen of Shadows onwards for the first time in 2023 so I’m not super surprised!

I had 36 five stars out of 111, 12 of which became all time favorites. I love reading stats 📊
Different background is nice
Could you share your spreadsheet for this?

I had 14 5 stars out of 60. Even though I am a big mystery/thiller girl, I rarely rate them 5 stars. 🥰🥰🥰

Out 86 books in 2023, 24 were 5 stars
out of 82 books, 11 were 5 stars (and 9 were 4.25 - 4.75 stars). 9 of those were rereads 😅
47 5 stars including those rounded up, out of 144 books, a very good year for me.
I LOVE STATISTICS. so amazing.
I had 12 five stars in 2023 and I read books in total!
I gave out 10 5 stars in 2023, out of 59 books read. This is the same number of 5 stars as in 2022, but as I read 5 books more in 2023 than in 2022 I had hoped for at least one more 5 star.
I had 8 of 49 books that were 5 star reads for me
I had 19 5* reads of 122 possible books
of the 206 books I read last year I sadly only had 13 five star reads that weren’t rereads
I read 141 books in 2023 & had 23 5 stars, which feels a bit low but isn’t bad at all 😊
I i only had 23 5 star reads out of 137 books 😅

Videos like this make me really wanna start tracking but I’m ✨lazy✨ 😂😂😂
Out of the 68 books I read, I gave 12 books 5 stars 😅
Somehow I gave 25 books five stars in 2023 and I’ll never know how 😂
6 5stars out of 58 books
In 2023 I gave 22 books out of 133 read a 5 ⭐ rating. 🤓
Where do you get these stats?
Becca has a Google (?) spreadsheet where she keeps track of all these stats!
Storygraph gives you some great stats depending on what you track. It does it automatically too ☺️
Only 1 one star is crazy
Zero five stars in 2023
