Around the Year in 52 Books

I've already posted a video with my TBR, but thought I would also make a blog post with my list that I could update with my progress throughout the year.

My TBR (To Be Read) Shelf

So this "Around the Year in 52 Books" Challenge was created here and the idea is to read one book a week that meets a challenge, so by the end of the 52 weeks (aka 1 year) you've read 52 books and completed 52 challenges. You can do the challenges in order, or pick and choose as you go (which is what I'm doing). So here is my list of 52 books I plan to get to this year and the list of challenges.

Some I have left blank as I'm not sure what book I'll be choosing, and some of these books may change throughout the year. This will always be the most relevant list though for my TBR, as I can't exactly edit the video I've posted haha. I've already swapped in and out a few books from this list as I've lost or gained interest.
