After spending an inordinate amount of time figuring out sorting, shelving, and exporting on Goodreads and then Google Sheets, I have compiled (most of) my list of my favorite four and five star reads from 2023! Somehow I ended up with 79 on Goodreads and 44 after I got done sorting in Sheets. I cannot even pretend to know what happened, so I will just say technology -1, Jessica – 0. These are in no particular order because I was super tired of sorting!
