Overview

I’ve been browsing through my TBR pile over the past few days and have simply chosen a selection, a fairly large one, of books I’d like to read in 2025. I realize I won’t read all of them. But I’ve deliberately kept my selection a bit larger so that I can always choose without putting myself under pressure.
