Dusty Shelves Book Challenge 2013

One of my goals for 2013 is to get through my backlog of books before starting any new ones.  My biggest problem is I will go to the library and start looking at the bookshelves and come away with like, 20 books.  Which is great...but it keeps me from reading the books I have.  So!  I thought signing up for a challenge will keep me on task.

Here is a list of books I would like to get through this year and have been on my shelf for 6 months or longer:

Days of Magic, Nights of War by Clive Barker (8 years)
Girls Guide to Hunting and Fishing by Melissa Banks (7 years)
Notes from a Small Island by Bill Bryson (6 years)
