The last challenge is the TBR Takedown. It's unofficial because I made it up for myself. I want to read 40 books that were on my physical or e-reader shelves before 2015, so no newly bought books will count. I haven't completed any of my previous TBR challenges, so hopefully this year will be different.
10/40 TBR Books
