Goals:
📚 Do not request anymore unless I plan on immediately reading, author I've read before, or anticipated book.
📚 Read 50+ NG books.
📚 Start with books either recently published or will be published within the month, then start on backlog.
📚 Read graphic novels/picture books that are READ NOW to boost ratio.
