This year I participated in Carl’s R.I.P. Challenge for the first time. I dove in feet first, too. I decided to take up his Peril the First challenge and read at least four books in any of the following categories: Mystery Suspense Thriller Dark fantasy Gothic Horror Supernatural I have always thought of myself as [...]
Over the holidays, I participated in LibraryThing‘s Secret Santa book swap. I had fun playing elf for my fellow LTer and really enjoyed getting my presents in the mail. Around the same time, Nicki from Fyrefly’s Book Blog posted about modifying that concept into a giveaway. I added my two cents about it making for [...]
Well, it’s been a while since my last update. In that time, I finished reading 37 by Maria Beaumont, Sweetsmoke by David Fuller, and Rabies Mom by Pat Carrol and Jack McGowan.

As I predicted, The i Tetralogy is taking me much longer to read than my first two books this month. I’ve finished the first two sections as of this evening. I’m half way there. This is a well written but tough book and I need a break. I may need to come back to it [...]
I was able to finish Regina’s Closet last night (technically this morning) before I went to bed. It was a wonderful book and a quick read. I have one review to write before this one, so I’m hoping to post my review sometime this weekend. Next up: Aberrations by Penelope Przekop. Literate Housewife’s Official Challenge [...]
Here is my post about the first mini challenge during the July Book Blowout Challenge: 1. Describe yourself in one sentence.
