Overview

Anyone else buy lots of books but prioritize reading from other sources (library, KU)? Well, this challenge is for you.

The goal is simple. Read 12 books that you physically own by the end of 2024. 

What you count as "read" is up to you! Want to count only books you read 100%? Go for it! Did you start a book you own decide you hate it, and DNF it? Feel free to still mark it here! This challenge is here to help you prioritize your shelves, not to judge you. :)
