2016 Book List

Books to Read in 2016

I think it's rather obvious based on the reading challenges I've committed to for 2016, that my TBR list for the year is quite large. As if the book list wasn't big enough to begin with from all of my backlogged books. So, I'm hoping to make things a little easier on me by actually planning which books to read to fulfill each challenge.
So, without further ado...
