A GREAT GIVEAWAY IN BLOGLAND AND LAST CHALLENGE...MAYBE.


Over at Ramblings of a Bibliophile they are giving away 2 copies of Cherie Priest's Steampunk novel, "Boneshaker".  It sounds INCREDIBLE, and Nikki's interview with the author is amazing too. Click here to enter her giveaway!! 













Also, literally seconds after posting about the last challenge I signed up for, I stumbled accross Alyce's challenge over at At Home With Books.  It's called Time Travel Reading Challenge.  Does this not have "me" written all over it???!!!  As IF I am NOT going to sign up.  Puh-leeze.  The rules are simple, decide how many time travel books you are going to read, and then READ THEM before Dec 31st of 2010!  That's it!  And didn't she just make the cutest button?

My first Challenge.... oooooo... SCAAARRRRYYYY!!!! (revamped post)

Mystery.
Suspense.
Thriller.
Dark Fantasy.
Gothic.
Horror.
Supernatural.
There are two simple goals to the R.eaders I.mbibing P.eril Challenge hosted by Carl at Stainless Steel Droppings:

1. Have fun reading.

2. Share that fun with others.

R.I.P. IV officially runs from September 1st through October 31st. But lets go ahead and break the rules. Lets start today!!!

I will be doing:

I have officially entered my VERY FIRST reading challenge!  Yikes!     I have signed up for "Peril the Second" which means that I have agreed to read 2 novels of any length in the subgenre of any scary stories I choose!  How cool is that! I see lots of other book bloggers doing various challenges, but most have been running for awhile already, and I have been waiting to catch one at the beginning, and this one fits me well as this is not normally the genre I read, BUT I have enjoyed a scary story or two in my reading life. 

I do not have a reading pool yet, but when I have a look at my stash and google around a bit I'll tell you what I find and then let you know how I do in the challenge!  I have from Sept 1st to Oct 31 to complete it!

How about you, do you think you would take the SCAAARRRYYYY path with me???
