I know we've done a couple of these already, but I just love this challenge!

Just like before, if you want to participate, post with your name and TWENTY books you'd like to read. The person who reads the most books chosen by their partner will be able to choose a Book of the Month for March.

I'm opening the challenge for participants today and it will remain open until the last day of January. That same day, I'll post the partners for this challenge and you'll be able to post the list you'd like your partner to read. If all goes according to plan, we'll be able to start reading on the first of February!

Feel free to sign up now! =D

Your partner picks out of the 20 books that you post for you to read. So basically you're posting 20 books from your tbr list and they pick which ones they think you should read. I think it's 10 from your 20. And you read as many as you can.
