2024 Upvoting Thread

[Stina]

Thank you for your patience and for all your great suggestions! I have streamlined the list a little bit and added in a few ideas for months some themes might go well with.

How to Vote:
Choose up to 12 of the suggestions below and list them in a reply to this post. If you list more than 12, I will count only the first 12. You may change your selections up until I close the thread shortly before midnight (US Mountain Time) on December 26th. How we proceed from there depends on how clear the top choices are, but if nothing else I hope to post a January 2024 theme right away so that you can start prepping for your New Year's reading.
