This challenge is hosted by the Under the Covers Book blog Goodreads group.  Basically, you need to read a certain number of books from various romance sub-genres.  In my case, I’ve chosen to go for the romance guru level, which means I’ll be reading 5 books from each sub-genre for a total of 65 books!  I’m very much looking forward to this.  I have a tendency to binge on certain genres (hi, paranormal & urban fantasy!) and ignore everything else.

Below I’ve listed out some of the books I’m hoping to read in each category, including books I have in my TBR and also ones that will be released in 2018.  I’m horrible at following these lists, though, so I’m sure things will get shaken up a bit as the year progresses.
