In 2022 I challenged myself to start reading one book published every year for the last 100 years. I’m close to being done, but I’ve been enjoying this project and I don’t want it to be over yet, so I decided to keep going! It has exposed me to many authors and books that I doubt I would ever have encountered otherwise.
I’ve been through the Wikipedia and Goodreads lists of books published in these years, and I have candidates for a couple of years, but very few books from this era seem to stand out to me, so I would be glad to get some recommendations
