January 2025 is here and we have the last list for the most read books of the week on Goodreads. Find out what everyone was reading to close out 2024!
Along with 2024 ending, the Christmas season is finally behind us. This list will be the last time that Christmas novels make an appearance. I am curious what will replace them in the coming weeks. But for now, the most read novel was a Christmas themed book.
Fourth Wing came in second and should be number one next week as Onyx Storm is set to release at the end of the month. Iron Flame is also in the top ten and it should be interesting to see how much they rise in the next couple of weeks. You can see the full list below!
