01.Nov.2009 R.I.P. IV Challenge Wrap-up
Today is the end of the fourth (and my first) R.I.P. Challenge and I’m happy to say that I’ve read 5 books out of the original 2 planned! I’m a slow reader and I don’t generally go for R.I.P. kinds of books, so that’s something! :)
Books I read:
- Snakes and Earrings by Hitomi Kanehara (urban gothic)
- Strangers by Taichi Yamada (ghost, mystery)
- A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens (ghost)
- Wicked by Gregory Maguire (dark fantasy)
- Dracula by Bram Stoker (gothic, vampire)
I initially thought If On A Winter’s Night A Traveler by Italo Calvino would qualify, but it’s definitely not an R.I.P. book. Out of the books I read, I enjoyed Wicked the most. My biggest disappointment was Strangers. All in all, it was great 2 months of spooky read! ETA: And I’m still reading the Woman in White now!
Thank you Carl for being such a wonderful host! I enjoyed it so much I’m already thinking what to read for next year R.I.P. muahahaa! *evil laugh*
Officially accomplished Peril the First. Woohoo!
