Is this a monthly or a yearly challenge? This is probably the only one I'm going to do. I have so many physical books and even more ebooks that I already own but have never read. I'm not going to buy any new ones this year but work on reading what I have.41+ Making real headway for me
I’ll join in on this one. This next year is a year to clean out what I have on the shelves and Kindle.31-40 List is getting shorter

I see you, Missy, Andrea, and I are all on the same track for next year - clean out shelves and Kindle. Mine are about to bury me. So this is my New Years' Book resolution.
I am going with 1-10 Cross a few off. People I am a total mood reader no matter how hard I try I read off of mood. So hopefully this will help me try to stick to a TBR.

I hope to make real headway by reading more from my TBR shelf and Kindle carousel than reading new purchases.Physical TBR

Lauri - seems like many of us are in this mode in 2022. Too many books that have languished for too long!
Is this similar to the Stack Attack we had?
No it is just a challenge to knock off as many books as you can on your TBR list. No stacks involved.
I'm in 1-10 - Crossed off a FewFor this one, I'm focusing on reading books I've purchased in 2017 and before.
#1
- purchased before 2013#2
- purchased 2/4/2015#3
- purchased 2017#4
- purchased 5/19/2016#5
- not sure but bought way before 2012#6
- purchased before 2012
I'm in with 41+ books! I want to read as many books already on my "Christian fiction" (fiction) and "Religion" (nonfiction and religions other than Christianity) shelves (added before January 1, 2022) as possible. I made a dent in those in 2021 but feel like I need to read more instead of moving them down my TBR to read newly released books. The format doesn't matter to me. I have NetGalley books, audios, physical, and Kindle. The goal is to read the books regardless of the format.1.
