Current TBR

Edit and revamp 12 October:

When I first posted this list at the end of August, it was my September TBR for [livejournal.com profile] pick_for_me and it was a lot shorter than it is now. I've divided it up a lot more, and I'll continue updating this for the rest of the year. My goal at the moment is to read a lot of the books that I own or have ended up with because I have no self-control on NetGalley, but I also have challenges to finish and a few new ones that I just want, dammit, so they're also on here. Where they apply to more than on sub-genre, I've listed them under both.
