I am committing to this challenge but have no idea on my categories or how many I will read for each yet. Possibilities are:

Books by Charles de Lint
Manga
Graphic Novels
Fairy Tales
Mythology/Folklore
Classics
Urban Fantasy (could br broken down further into vampires/werewolves/fey etc)
Teenage Fiction
LGBT
Series Continuation
First in a Series
Mystery
Books on my TBR for more than 3 years
Magical (non-fiction)
Non Fiction in general

Will continue to give it some thought and think about how many to read for each category and what other reading committments I have in 2010. Any other ideas appreciated!

OK I think I have my categories and I have decided to do this as a step challenge.

1 x My friend says (Recommendations)
2 x Mind, Body, Spirit
3 x Tickle my Fancy (Erotic Fiction)
4 x We've Been Waiting So Long (Waiting on my TBR for over 3 years)
5 x The Tube (TV tie-ins)
6 x When I Wish Upon a Star (Fairy Tale Re-Tellings)
7 x Eh Aboot (Canadian Authors)
8 x 1, 2, 3, 4 Can I Have a Little More (Series Reading)
9 x Too Young to Know Better (Teenage Fiction)
10 x Just Because (whatever takes my fancy!)

I will post updates at the end of every month and fill books in as I go. I am not going to pre-plan any of my reading so it is left open for me to pick and choose as I go along.
