Edit (1/9/20): I've also decided that I won't let myself include rereads in the challenge, because I'm rereading Harry Potter this year and it feels like cheating to use them.
Edit (1/19/20): Because I’m including short stories and novellas in the challenge now, if I complete it this year, my challenge 2.0 will be to replace those with full length novels.
