75 Books...More or Less! discussion

Last year I decided to merge the ABC Challenge with the Read Your Shelves Challenge and I had so much fun and crossed so many books off my tbr I’m doing it again in 2023! The rules are simple: it’s the ABC Challenge, but for every letter I can’t find something I’m in the mood for, I’ll read 2 books that have been on my tbr since 2020 or older.
