Reading Glasses 2021 Challenge - hosted by babayagaofficial

Activity: Get rid of a book you'll never read
The StoryGraph is set up to count books that are "read" within the challenge's time range, so it will only count this as completed if you've marked the book as read this year. Tricky for an I'll-never-read-this challenge!

Do add the book you've let go, even though that won't mark the prompt as "complete." I've set this as a Bonus Prompt, so that won't keep you from completing the whole challenge.
