Help Me Pick eBooks to Read - Comment Giveaway!

I have been thinking about what book I want to read first in 2015. Also I signed up for a COYER book challenge and I am ready to start reading from my VERY LARGE Kindle Library.
(Image found at WorldStart tips)

I have made a list of the Kindle books that I picked up in 2009, the year I got my first Kindle. There were only 114 books that year. Three were more than the $2.99 maximum allowed for the COYER challenge so they are excluded. I have also removed books I have already read, a cook book and two studies. That brings the number to 94. I think I have selected the one I want to start the year with so that brings me to 93. I have decided to list them 23 at a time and let commenters help me pick titles to read.
I will randomly select TWO WINNERS from the commenters. Winners will get either the book they chose gifted as an ebook (up to $7.00 value) or $5.00 GC.

Here are the first 23 titles to help me pick from:

Kiss of Midnight: A Midnight Breed Novel (The Midnight Breed.. Lara Adrian May 4,2009

plus NoiseTrade downloads ebooks I have won over the years.
I also have an Audible Library with a minimum of 30 books a year for 13 years; 
I am sure I have at least 50, probably more, unread books. 
And I still have another 700+ print books at home.

I WILL PICK TWO WINNERS FROM THE COMMENTS and read those books. THIS SELECTION GIVEAWAY WILL END ON DECEMBER 27, 2014 at 5pmCST.
Open worldwide.
Thanks for helping me with this dilemma! :-)

COYER Winter 2014-2015 Challenge

Winter 2014-2105 COYER

Winter 2014-2015 COYER Sign Ups
COYER is hosted by Berls @ Fantasy is More Fun and Michelle @ Because Reading.

Anyone who sees my Mailbox Monday knows that I am overloaded with Freebies in my Kindle Library. I have been thinking I need to schedule reading more of those for 2015. Today I stumbled across this Challenge and decided to go for it!
Winter 2014-2015 COYER (Clean Out Your E-Reader) is hosted by Berls @ Fantasy is More Fun and Michelle @ Because Reading.  It runs from December 20th 2014 – March 6th 2015 and you can sign up here until January 25th! The Kick-off is December 20 so go check out the details and join me/us. If you do sign up, be sure to indicate that I sent you on the linky, where it says “Who referred you?” so I can win $5 to Amazon!
I do not know what books I will be reading but I have started a file with titles of interest that date back as far as 2011. (If I had known my free Audibles would be included I might have waited on the one I am reading.)  I plan to do one or two Flash giveaway posts to let my followers help pick titles too.  I guess review books get to be included so they would be an easy add in for the challenge.  
Here are my goals:
  • Read & review at least 20 books, half of which are Not NetGalley or review selected books. 
  • Over 11 weeks this  should be doable for me. -- Fell Short by two
  • Visit and comment on at least 3 reviews from the linky a week. This is not easy as I find it hard to set aside time to visit even with good intentions.  --Did not complete
  • Participate in 1 of the read-a-thons. Read-a-thons are hard for me because the DH does not like to see me spend ALL my time reading . But the scavenger hunt sounds like fun! --Did one Scavenger Hunt.
  • Join in at least 1 social media activity a month in the Facebook group. I will try. --Late to FB event twice.
  • Do at least 1 mini-challenge. I'll try this too. --Mini-scavenger Hunt.
  • Hope I can meet these goals!
