I also joined the 2011 YA book challenge and have committed to reading 20 children's and YA books. Note: books read for my Writing for Children class that are under 100 pages will not be part of the total count, but will be listed separately.
You can read my reviews here on my blog or on my Amazon Reviewer Page

UPDATE: October 25, 2011 - Since I've started working on a novel rewrite and plan to enter NaNoWriMo in November, I am clearly not going to make 100 books by the end of the year, or the more modest 50 books pledged on Goodreads. My goals for 2012 will be bit more modest... perhaps 75 books in a year.
UPDATE: December 10, 2011 - Well, I made it to 40 books, which is actually pretty good over the course of the year (while completing my masters and picking up the mantle of a professor in the fall). Next year I'll reach toward 50 books, with no min or max on young adult fiction, which I also enjoy.
