Originally, I chose 24 as my reading challenge goal. After making swift progress early in the year, I bumped it up to 28. As 2021 fades into memory, I was able to finish the 28th book, getting in just under the wire! My favorite of the year was The Code Breaker: Jennifer Doudna, Gene Editing, and the Future of the Human Race by Walter Isaacson, as parts of it were applicable to the global pandemic over the last 2 years.
