2012 TBR Pile Reading Challenge

So let's try this challenge one more time.  I have a habit of collecting books and never reading them (as I'm sure most of you do too).  Well, there are some really great books on my shelf that I do want to get around to reading this year.  That is why I signed up for this challenge hosted by: Evie from Bookish - http://www.evie-bookish.blogspot.com @SeoEvie
Nicole from All I Ever Read - http://www.nicoleabouttown.com/ @Nicoleabouttown
Bonnie from Hands and Home - http://www.handsandhome.ca/ @HandsHomeBlog

Jenna from Fans Of Fiction - http://fansoffiction.blogspot.com/ @fansoffiction
Angel from Mermaids Vision - http://mermaidvision.wordpress.com @mermaidvisions  The level I'm going for is A Friendly Hug, which includes reading 11-20 books.  The reason I picked this challenge compared to other challenges is that I can change the books I want to read from my original list....how awesome is that.  I tend to change my reads according to my mood so this is perfect for me.  I picked a lower level of books because according to the challenge I can always move up a level but not down...so this year I don't want to fail this challenge (hence starting on a low level). 

 Here are some of the books on my TBR shelf I want to tackle...at least at this moment:  

 

 

Wish me luck...I am determined to finish a TBR challenge this year.  I better not make it a New Year's resolution or I'll never keep it.
