That’s a wrap, January! I read 13 books this month, and made progress on both the #clearyourshelfchallenge and the #2023netgalleychallenge ! I read a lot of good books this month, but The Thursday Murder Club was by far my favorite. Loved that cast of characters and will be picking up the second in the series soon.
