Josie (fidele1922) | 119 comments So last year was my first time doing the challenge; it seemed like a good challenge to make me clear a few books off my tbr lists (or at least get me to look at them and remind myself of what's there lol).

But I failed SPECTACULARLY. Not a single book on this list did I read. I kept forgetting I was even doing the challenge. So same list, but hopefully a better outcome!

1. Automate This: How Algorithms Came to Rule Our World 3⭐️

2. Axiom's End 4⭐️

3. Fruiting Bodies: Stories 3.75⭐️

4. Gender Queer: A Memoir 4⭐️

5. Indigo 3.5⭐️

6. Lord of the White Hell, Book 1 4⭐️

7. Lord of the White Hell, Book 2 replacing

8. Mercury Falls 4.5⭐️

9. Misquoting Jesus: The Story Behind Who Changed the Bible and Why 4⭐️

10. The Myth of Sisyphus

11. Sister Outsider: Essays and Speeches 4⭐️

12. Witchmark 3.5⭐️

Good luck and happy reading!

I definitely have Axioms End on my TBR. Mercury Falls looks interesting, may have to check it out.

Lea (leaspot) | 3638 comments I love lists where I haven't read any books on it. I also didn't have too many of these on my TBR, so I've now gone down a rabbit hole looking at these books. I mean, who doesn't want to know why zebras don't get ulcers. :-) Happy reading!
