Actin' Up with Books: Pick it up then pile it up challenge

Actin' Up with Books is hosting a mini-challenge within the bout of books read-a-thon. If you'd like to join the read-a-thon click HERE to be taken to Amanda's page with all the deets!

Here is a good sampling of my TBR pile. This is about half, I have two book shelves I didn't want to mess up and I have my Sony eReader with quite a few titles. I think I need to stop buying books for a while, yeah?

I like returning the favor so make sure you leave me your name and blog (if applicable) or link to wishlist so I can do a shout out and get a goody off your wishlist.

A big thanks to Vanessa and Isalys over at Book Soulamates for hosting this again :)
