#Markd9528's (Hopefully) Unique & Interesting 2020 TBR

Due to the woeful inroads I made into my 2019 TBR, this 2020 list is partially derived from last year's TBR, but without books I started to read but couldn't stomach and those I couldn't get from my local library.
The additions are mainly works that were recommended on various literature podcasts during 2019. I have also included some books from my other longer-term TBRs.
