Paranormal Romance & Urban Fantasy discussion

It's time for our traditional popular TBR Clean-Up Challenge.

Hopefully this challenge will make a dent on our crazy TBR pile, just before a new year starts.

DURATION: Dec. 1, 2012 - Dec. 31, 2012

Here are the rules:

1. Pick 10 books from your current physical TBR pile (preferably books that have been there for quite some time). Also pick 5 more books as 'alternate' reads just in case.

Unlike previous challenges, once you put up this list, you CANNOT CHANGE it. However, you can drop down to an alternate book, if you really cannot finish a book that you have selected in your original list. Fair enough?

Also, if you are expecting some library books that you need to read in the month, be sure to include them in your alternate list, so they will count.

Now, for those who don't have enough books (15 in total) in their current TBR pile, to complete your list (both original and alternate) go to your GR to-be-read shelf, and pick how many more you still need from the first 5 pages of that shelf.

Have fun going through your shelves!
