For 2022, I thought we'd do something different with the format for this challenge. Instead of creating a single long list with a numbered comment every time someone adds a book, we're going to try separating each person's individual list. So, to take part, just post a comment as your "tracking post." Then, starting on Jan. 1, just use the "edit" function to update it with a numbered list of each classic you read. (You can use my tracking post below as an example of the idea.)
