Library Challenge

Okay, somebody let me know if I'm going a bit crazy here (I know, that happened a long time ago--how will anybody know the difference)...but I'm signing up for another Book Challenge on Home Girl's Book Blog. This one is a challenge meant to support your local library. There are different levels and I've decided to aim for "Stepping It Up" (checking out and reading 75 library books by the end of 2010). I may make "Super-Size Me" (100 books) but since I also have piles of "To Be Read" books of my own, I'm not sure if I'll make it. Here's the library list so far:
