Signing-up post for the 2016 What's in a Name reading challenge

Apropos of yesterday’s first post I decided to sign up for the What's in a Name reading challenge. 
I have mostly been reading loan books and ebooks lately, while my TBR stack has been swelling and threatening to take over my library (it's currently at around 40% of my books), Therefore I decided to try to read as many books from my TBR stack of physical books as possible.

Guess what? I found books that fit all the categories!

Below is a list of the possible reads. First you see the category and then a list of books.The ones in parentheses are ebooks, but I will only resort to those if I find the others uninteresting, boring or otherwise unreadable. I have bolded the ones I am most inclined to read, but that doesn’t put the others out of the running. My mood may, after all, have changed once I get to them. Once I have finished a particular category, I will strike out the category and underline the book I chose.

The rest of the rules and guidelines can be found on the hosting website.

If you have any suggestion or recommendation as to which of these books I should read, please post it in the comments section.
