My goal to get the TBR down to below 1000 in 2023 is fast eroding, I got another 2 books from Amazon together with a Christmas gift I'd ordered for a friend:
The Night Before Christmas by Alex Pine - Book 4 (latest) in the DI Walker series that usually comes out this time of year and somehow I've managed to make an annual read so I decided to continue that The Christmas Book Club by Sarah Morgan - Will give this to my colleague's wife but of course I'm going to read it first!
