2023 TBR Declutter Challenge - hosted by buggy

A book you own that you don't know much about.
Whether it was a cover buy, or just something someone recommended to you one time, this is that book's time to shine! 

If you pick one up and realize it doesn't interest you, get rid of it! 
Continue to do this until you've found one you're actually interested in investing several hours of your life into, or until you no longer own a book that fits this prompt.
