Am I really signing up for another challenge? Talk me down!

Reading from My Shelves Project
Here are the details if you are interested (or so you'll know what I am going to attempt to do):

* Challenge runs from January 1 - December 31, 2011.
* Read books from your own shelves, and then pass the books on to someone else: a friend, relative, the library, used book store, swap them, just as long as the book leaves your house once it has been read.
* Decide on your goal (12 is the minimum - no maximum). Cross over books are allowed.  My goal is 12 and I will for sure cross over with other challenges.

Here is a picture of several of the books I rounded up without looking very hard. All shall be in contention to help me meet this challenge---




Notice the Raggedy Ann and Andy book in there?  I actually had to have one that I know I am going to read. Notice also that several books still have their price receipts still hanging out of the book?  Why did I buy if I wasn't planning on reading immediately?  Am I crazy for signing up for another challenge? Talk me down!  Please!
