R.I.P. Challenge V



*sigh*, another challenge, I've gone and done it again.  And no, Marce from Tea Time With Marce DIDN'T even try and stop me, she is just no help at all ; )

Readers Imbibing Peril Challenge V

This is being hosted by Stainless Steel Droppings and it's the 5th one.  There are different levels of peril...yes peril, so you don't feel over extended.  Not only that, you can combine challenges if your in more than one.  I'm doing Book Chick City's All Hallows Eve as well so I can kill a few birds with one stone here.  Hhhmmm, killing, sounds like it fits...

Since I am piggy backing my challenges, I will go with peril the first and read 4 books in the spooky thriller horror genre.


Oh my I haven't read a real horror story in years.  I mean like John Saul Suffer The Children horror!  I'm a scarit.  I do love my psycho thrillers though, nothing like Gretchen Lowell force feeding you drano to get your blood pumping.

I will come back here and list my progress, and no I have absolutely no idea which book will have me as it's first victim....

I have made my first choice...

  1. Nightshade - John Saul
  2. The Surgeon - Tess Gerritsen
  3. Heart Shaped Box - Joe Hill
  4. The Dark Of Night - John Saul

I did try to get into Ramsey Campbell but just couldn't.  The cadence of his writing was just throwing me and I couldn't get through his books.  I tried 2,  Silent Children and Obsession.
*****

And I have completed this spooky challenge!!

    3. I had a brilliant reply prepared but then my husband came home and I had to get his chow out of the oven, and lost it I think. But I would have stopped you - or told you to stop.
