My To-Be-Read Books
I’ve always wanted to do this post and today, I finally sat down and made it. I have currently only one TBR pile that consists of all the books in my possession.

I’m hoping to get through a lot of these this year. I know it will be hard since many of these are classics but I’m gonna try my best. Also, some of these I have already read a while back but I want to read them again. I will be including these at the end of the list. There are 24 books in total.
