Up Next Shelf Archive: 2021

Overview: My Up Next Shelf Archive: 2021 is a page dedicated to all the books read from my Up Next Shelf in 2021.

If a book is included on this page as ‘read from my Up Next Shelf,’ it means I did not purchase the book and immediately read it (that would make it an ‘instant’ read). I’ve created this shelf (list) to keep track of all the books I still have to read and to minimize my book purchases (which rarely works as my book haul category demonstrates).
