February 2026 TBR

The First Unhaul of 2026

With the first haul of 2026 comes the first unhaul of 2026. I want to be intentional about what I’m reading this year and having a cluttered shelf doesn’t help that. So here’s what I’m getting rid of. The Wolf of Oren-Yaro The Wolf of Oren-Yaro didn’t work for me. I just didn’t like the […]
