R.I.P IV Challenge: Are You In?


I just heard about this challenge and it sounds like a lot of fun! R.eaders I.mbibing P.eril IV is hosted by Stainless Steel Droppings and runs from September 1st through Halloween. There are many levels of participation so everyone can participate and includes the following genres:
  • Mystery
  • Suspense
  • Thriller
  • Dark Fantasy
  • Gothic
  • Horror
  • Supernatural
I haven't chosen my books yet but I hope to join at the 'Peril The Second' level which requires me to read at least two books. I'm not sure which books I plan to read yet as I just heard about the challenge but I will list them here once I've decided. Anyone else want to join in on the fun? If so, click here for details. I swear, the post alone will put you in the mood for Halloween.

Awww..thank you! I've definitely been stoking the Autumn/Halloween fires myself, despite the fact that it is humid like a tropical forest here today.

Thanks so much for joining us. No worries about not choosing books. I generally put a list together and then my whims take me elsewhere anyway. The list part is really more fun for the joy of making a list anyway! Ha!

Hope you enjoy your first time in the R.I.P. Challenge!

I AM in. Can't wait to see what books you choose. I have always gone with the classics (Dracula and Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde) but this year I am looking at some more modern titles. Best of luck.
