Overview

This is my personal challenge, but you’re welcome to join. I have a long list of books on my physical TBR that I have to read before I let myself buy anymore books (and there are so many new releases I want to buy this year), I’m making this the year to get through as many as possible. 

Fingers crossed I can get through at least half of these book in 2025.
