2024 Goodreads reading challenge goal met on: 9/7/24
Something's up with Goodreads' tracker.  It was pretty accurate until the last couple of weeks.  I'm not sure when it changed exactly.  But my progress toward my goal for 2025 is also messed up.  It seems to be counting books twice.

Total books read in 2024 (according to my records): 1569
