For this challenge, roll two dice with random.org's dice -https://www.random.org/dice/

Using the number you got, pick a book from your TBR list. For numbers 10, 11, and 12, you can use either number or both. You decide how many books you want to reduce from your TBR shelf.

Example: you rolled a 7. You can read #7 on your TBR list
the book can be published in a year ending in 7
the book can be published in July (the 7th month)
the book can be the 7th in a series
the book can have a 7 in the page number.
It's up to you how the number connects with a book from your TBR list.

If you are participating in the Scale Your TBR Mountain Challenge, feel free to use this challenge to fulfill your commitment there.

Happy reading and let's reduce our TBR lists!
