2023 TBR Challenge

Whenever the subject of someone tackling their TBR comes up, I always think, "I'm not going to even bother." My TBR -- especially my ebook TBR -- is so huge, that if I read 1 book a day it would take me almost 40 years to finish it. And that's if I don't add any more books to it between now and 2063. Which is not going to happen. But, I saw this challenge and thought it might be fun. Books completed are indicated in Blue
