Ohhh, I would so love to take part but for that I'd have to 1. add more books to my to-read list and 2. inventory all my ebooks! (And I really really really don't want to do that chore!

Also, I am wondering, must I read something out of the romance genre? Or can it be from any genre for this challenge?
