I am new to wood working and have done small projects (simple side table, etc) so far. My wife really liked a simple contemporary book shelf at a retail furniture store that was about 1200 bucks! We cant afford that so I am attempting to build this myself. Attached is a sketchup image for the plan that I developed.

I am not sure if this can be built sturdily. I need experts on this forum to comment on the structural design of this and if this needs more support?
I plan to use 2 inch by 12 inch white wood for this project. Wife wants a dark walnut finish on this.
Recommendations on lighter wood or materials to use are most certainly welcome.
