2023, ToRead Public

Created and curated by Nathan John Cooper

A list of all the books I plan on reading this year whilst trying to achieve my '52 books' by December 31st goal.

Instead of tracking my progress weekly, I will complete a review every month. The goal will be to read a minimum of four books per month as this is a healthy baseline that should allow for the additional four books (the left over amount of books due when doing '52 - (12 x 4)' with '52' being the weeks in the year, '12' being the months in the year, and '4' being the monthly book goal) to be read in the summer months - when I will have more free time.
