2013 TBR Challenge!

If I have my way, I'll finish this year having read 120 books.  I may get a few past that.  That's about 20 more than I set a goal to read, and about 70 more than I read last year.  I've read some amazing, fantastic, gut-wrenching books that changed me - more on that soon.  But there was one problem.

I didn't read a single book that I already owned.  I participated in a lot of book tours, and I'm glad I did.  I read books I wouldn't have known about otherwise.  I won a few great-looking books.  But my TBR pile just kept growing. 

So for 2013 I want to change that.  I want to read a lot of the 2013 debuts, yeah - because they look fabulous.  But I also want to read some of the books I own that I've been looking forward to for forever.  So!  I'm joining Evie's 2013 TBR challenge!

Sign up here!

I'm committing to the "a firm handshake" level, which means I'd like to read 11-20 books from my TBR books that I own.  Here are the ones I hope to read!

1. Juliet Immortal by Stacey Jay
2. Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater
3. The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
4. If I Stay by Gayle Forman
5. Wither by Lauren DeStefano
6. Incarnate by Jodi Meadows
7. Paranormalcy by Kiersten White
8. The Body Finder by Kimberly Derting
9. Darker Still by Leanna Renee Hieber
10. Enclave by Ann Aguirre
11. Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver
12. The Iron King by Julie Kagawa
13. Scarlet by A.C. Gaughen
14. Shade by Jeri Smith-Ready
15. Something Like Normal by Trish Doller
16. Born Wicked by Jessica Spotswood
17. Kill Me Softly by Sarah Cross
18. Unraveling by Elizabeth Norris
19. Bloodlines by Richelle Mead
20. Article 5 by Kristen Simmons 

And hopefully more than that, but that's the minimum I want to read.  I'm hoping that by posting about it here, I'll hold myself accountable!   I hope several of y'all will consider joining up, too, as there will be mini-challenges, wrap-up posts, and giveaways!

Happy reading!
