Mount TBR 2012 Challenge Sign up

So its official, I am signing up for Mount TBR Reading Challenge for next year hosted by Bev at My Readers Block.  I really need to check some books off my mountain before I have an landslide of books cover me!

So a few rules first . . . Quoted from the signup page at My Readers Block
*Once you choose your challenge level, you are locked in for at least that many books. If you find that you're on a mountain-climbing roll and want to tackle a taller mountain, then you are certainly welcome to upgrade.

*Challenge runs from January 1 to December 31, 2012.

*You may sign up anytime from now until November 30th, 2012.

*Books must be owned by you prior to January 1, 2012. No ARCs (none), no library books. No rereads. [To clarify--based on a question raised--the intention is to reduce the stack of books that you have bought for yourself or received as presents {birthday, Christmas, "just because," etc.}. Audiobooks may count if they are yours and they are one of your primary sources of backlogged books.]

*Books may be used to count for other challenges as well.

*Feel free to submit your list in advance (as incentive to really get those books taken care of) or to tally them as you climb.

*A blog and reviews are not necessary to participate. If you have a blog, then please post a challenge sign up and link THAT post (not your home page) into the linky below. Non-bloggers, please leave a comment declaring your challenge level.

*A progress site for reviews will go up in January and I will post the link in my sidebar for easy access.

Ready for the Challenge Levels?!

Pike's Peak: Read 12 books from your TBR pile/s
Mt. Vancouver: Read 25 books from your TBR pile/s
Mt. Ararat: Read 40 books from your TBR piles/s
Mt. Kilimanjaro: Read 50 books from your TBR pile/s
El Toro: Read 75 books from your TBR pile/s
Mt. Everest: Read 100+ books from your TBR pile/s

Looking at my Mount TBR, it is definitely over Everest height

Do you see that? That bookshelf is 6 feet tall and mount TBR is just as tall and partially double deep?!

But because I plan a few re-reads, want to participate in other challenges and read new releases I am going to shoot for Mt. Kilimanjaro in hopes of climbing to El Toro.
