There are many challenges this year that involve reading your own personal collection. Since I have shelves that are creaking with the weight of all those books bought but never read, I am signing up for the Unread Book Challenge hosted by the hopeful librarian. The rules are simple: You have to read your own books, crossovers from other challenges are allowed, and you set up your own level.
For details and sign-up, go here:
