Eden's 2023 Books (Lightly Abridged Version)

I set out to make this a "fun reading only" list and then realized I'm a giant nerd who deeply enjoyed most of the academic books I read this year so they ended up here too. For truly fun reading, everyone check out Alasdair Beckett-King's Montgomery Bonbon series, it's a delight!
