My Massive TBR Pile

I'm one of those people who dives head first into something once she decides she wants to do it. So last year, when I decided I wanted to write YA, I went a little crazy with the idea that I needed to read as much YA as possible (and okay, I WANTED to read as much YA as possible). Hence my massive TBR pile.

I finally got around to semi-organizing my bookshelf (read: actually putting the books on the shelves the right way) and now I'm faced with this:

Isn't it beautiful?

I've counted somewhere around 137 books on those shelves that are just waiting to be read. (And that's fiction only, not research books.) My goal was to read at least 100 books this year (at 2 per week, I'm on track, go me!) but after seeing how many books I have, and how many books coming out this year that I want to get, I'm thinking I need to up that number.

Here's a closer look at what's in my pile. I actually get sort of giddy just looking at it!
Isn't it beautiful?


Any suggestions on must reads that I should move to the top?
