I loved the discussion about books Sara and Liz didn't like. It was a great discussion, and as much as I love finding new books to add to my TBR, I'm equally as happy to find reasons to take books off so that I can focus on the books I'm most likely to consider a good use of my time.
I don't have an overall numbers goal, but I did set a monthly goal for an author or a type of book I want to read. I also want to continue doing random TBR picks. For the past several months, I've had random.org select three numbers, I match the numbers to my TBR list, and I then commit to reading at least one of those books.
Dean just read Rejection after we heard the NYT Book Review talk about it on their year end episode and I'm so curious about it! Both he and the reviewers talk about it in such a funny way - which is that it's so good but it's so intense. I'm curious for sure!
I am super thrilled to read LESS this year, too and to read more deeply. I started my year (thanks partially to FM book club) with There are Rivers in the Sky - and also, Our Evenings, plus The Sympathizer for another book club. They all feel like perfect books to SLOW DOWN and just revel in. Love your encouragement in this area. HNY, Sara!

I absolutely knew the story collection before clicking the link—felt just the same way about it!!

We have very similar reading intentions for the year, Sara! I look forward to reading less with you ☺️
