Reading Two by Two Throughout the Years - 2024 Update

Calling back to a list from three years ago, where I listed a pair of books for each publishing year: the first my favorite, the second the premier on the TBR docket. This one runs from 2024 to 1925, so not a 100% overlap with the first one. Still fascinating to see what's changed and what hasn't.
