I have boxes of unread books, unpacked from our move into this house 5yrs ago, downstairs in the basement, as well as unread books stacked two deep in the basement bookcases.

Kresley Cole's If You Decieve
Lynne Graham's Jewel In His Crown
Martha Grimes' I Am The Only Running Footman
Jo Goodman's Kissing Comfort
Theresa Meyer's The Hunter
Jane Goodger's When A Duke Says I Do
Justine Musk's Univited

The Procastination Station 2012 Bag O' Books Challenge. (that title is a little self-defeating. Think about it. lol)
I may do some reviews/commentaries on some of the books, but mostly will just keep track of my progress here on the blog.
Going to start with one of the smaller piles on the side table:
