Writer's picture: MelMel

SO. Remember how in 2022 I read a billion books? Well, in 2023, I did not. But regardless, I be readin'.

My goal was to read 60 books - I was feeling very ambitious after surpassing my previous 50-book goal of 2022. But I ended up making it to 38; still not bad, but we did not hit the goal.
