The e2012 TBR Pile Reading Challenge is a challenge to read those books gathering dust on our bookshelves. Go sign up!
Challenge guidelines:
- This challenge will run from Jan 1, 2012 - Dec 31, 2012.
- As we would like to see quality reviews linked up to our monthly wrap-ups, only bloggers can enter. Sorry about that!
- Any genre, length or format of book counts, as long as it is a book that's been sitting on your shelf for some time now. Only books released in 2011 and earlier! NO ARCs and 2012 fresh-off-the-press releases allowed!
- You can list your books in advance or just put them in a wrap-up post. If you list them, feel free to change them as the mood takes you.
- When you sign up in the linky, put the direct link to your post about joining the 2012 TBR PILE Reading Challenge (You need to include the info + host list + challenge button. You can also grab the button code and add it to your sidebar!)
- You can move up levels, but no moving down.
- Sign-ups will be open until Dec 15, 2012, so feel free to join at any time throughout the year.
- At the end of each month one of the hosts will post a wrap-up. Every wrap-up will have it's unique theme, a mini-challenge, a giveaway and place for you to link up your reviews from this month. For each review you link up, you will get one entry in a drawing of one book of choice from Book Depository. It's open to INTERNATIONALS. For participating in the mini-challenge you will get +1 entry.
- If you miss a wrap-up post + giveaway, you can link up your reviews next month. Do not, however, try to link up one review twice - we will be checking ;)
- December is a wrap-up for the whole year. All the book reviews you linked up January-November + the ones you'll link up in December will be entered into a HUGE giveaway - 12 books, 12 winners, INTERNATIONAL.
- You don't have to follow all the hosts to join the challenge, but you do have to follow all of us to be entered in giveaways!

Levels:
1-10 - A Firm Handshake
11-20 - A Friendly Hug
21-30 - A Sweet Kiss
31-40 - Love At First Sight
41-50 - Married With Children
I'm going to be signing up for A Sweet Kiss, because some of the books on my shelves, I don't want to read too much, and half of them I have read, so if library books (the mental TBR pile) could count (maybe I'll ask) then I'd have a whole lot more to read!
So what I want to read:
- The Hunger Games
- Catching Fire
- Mocking Jay
- Hourglass
- A Storm of Swords
- 5 Bodies to Die For
- 6 Killer Bodies
- Shiver
- Linger
- Forever
- Prophecy of Sisters
- Heroes of the Valley
- Shadow's Son
- Faithful
- The Shack
- My Enemy, My Love
- Eragon
- Eldest
- Brisignr
- Dangerous Tides
- Safe Harbor
- Turbulent Sea
- Burning Wild
- Savage Nature
And this list might grow, depending on what I read in the next month and a half, and what I don't. But mostly I'm going to be reading library books, and review books, so maybe!
Great books! :) Thank you for signing up for the challenge, I hope you'll enjoy it!
