I'm in for 10.
I don't have any books marked as TBR on my Goodreads profile, so I used the excel list of the unread physical books I own.
Randomizer gave me some chunksters I've been meaning to read for a veery long time. A very nice mix!
[2/10]
#77 North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell
#96 Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
#103 The Complete Father Brown by G.K. Chesterton
#289 A Perfect Vacuum by Stanisław Lem
#192
#209 War and War by László Krasznahorkai
#209 Brodie's Report by Jorge Luis Borges
#136 The Iliad by Homer
#322
#42 The Death of Artemio Cruz by Carlos Fuentes

I'm aiming to read more nonfiction this year, so this challenge is exactly what I'm looking for!
Here is my card;

I'll probably start with diagonal:
-Economics
-History
-Free Space
-Urban Sociology
-Nature and Ecology
