Books Read in 2020

This is a list of all the books I've read so far in 2020 (I can't believe we've reached 2020 already!). I read 180 books last year, surpassing my Goodreads goal by 80 books! I'm aiming for 100 books again this year, but hopefully I'll read more again! There're so many good books that I'm excited to get to this year. Looking forward to finding some new favourites!
