Yay! It’s time once again for my favorite reading challenge! I have participated in the R.I.P. Challenge for several years. The idea is to choose your particular peril—details are in this post on Carl’s site—and just have fun reading. Carl also provides a linkup for reviews.
You can read whatever you like as long it fits your definition of creepy, spooky, gothic, scary, etc. The challenge runs from September 1 to October 31. I am a little late in starting it this year. I am not really sure what I’m going to read, but here are some choices:

If you have read any of these books, let me know what you thought of it/them. I am trying to make up my mind.
I have only read The Forgotten Garden…loved it!
Love the blog "face-lift"!
Enjoy!
I thought The Forgotten Garden was just so-so, but I strongly recommend Neverwhere! It's so good! This month is a perfect time to read it!
So many of these sound good! The Map of Time, The Rosewood Casket, The Forgotten Garden, and Little, Big all sound amazing. I will have to look them up, especially the Kate Morton. 🙂
