R.I.P. IV Challenge: Wrap Up

Thanks so much to Carl from Stainless Steel Droppings for hosting the fourth edition of the RI.P. challenge.

I read my two books and even have the reviews written and posted. Both books were mysteries:

Mind Scrambler by Chris Grabenstein
To Darkness and to Death by Julia Spence-Fleming

This is a super challenge! I didn't join last year because I thought participants had to read horror, which I don't do. Once I realized that mysteries counted, I was in. I'm already looking forward to next fall.

To see what everyone else read, see the R.I.P. IV Review Site there are an astounding 650+ reviews posted. Now how's that for a 2-month challenge?

    I am proud of you for not getting hung up in the scary aspect of the challenge! I signed up for four books (when I thought it was a year-long challenge - ha!), reviewed 6 during the two month time period, plus three more that were read in the two months but reviewed in November. A little out of control. I love spooky stories!

    Congratulations!

    I was tempted, and next year I think I will try to squeeze it in. I would like to (re)read and review some Gothic Horror.

    I like that this challenge was short and sweet; well, maybe "sweet" isn't the right word ...

    Congrats on finishing! I'll keep some space on my calendar for RIP next year.
