Here is an interesting challenge - though it does involve a lot of books, you can retroactive in back to August. That should help with some of the reading!
Go here to sign up - but rules are below.
The goal of this challenge is to read the number of books first published in a given year that corresponds to the last digit of each year in the 2000s — 9 books from 2009, 8 books from 2008, etc. The total number of books required, therefore, is 45.
This challenge lasts from 8/8/08 through 9/9/09. Yes, it is retroactive to August 8th!
Crossovers with other challenges are allowed and your lists may change at any time.
