Hey, welcome back to the R.I.P. Challenge! I’m so glad you are coming back for another year of thrills and chills.
Quite the yummy reading list you have there. I just picked up Heart Shaped Box from the library the other day and really look forward to getting into it soon.
You have a lot of great choices there! Yay for this time of the year.
In the woods seems to be making the pool lists! Read it last year and it was pretty good!
I really need to read something by Sarah Waters at some point…
You’ve got some great great great books on there!!! So glad to see you’re reading Colleen’s book
It’s right up your alley! And Something Wicked This Way Comes is AMAZING!! I fell in love with that book! Another great Bradbury is The Halloween Tree. It’s a little juvenille, but so good and just perfect for this time of year!
LOL Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger seems almost as popular this RIP and The Graveyard book was last time around!
Same here … I started blogging just after the first RIP Challenge so missed that one. Great list you have there!
Ooh good list! I’ll read Dead After Dark if you do
I just finished Her Fearful Symmetry and it was GOOD! Happy reading!
me too~! I am in
What a list! I can pick a few from here!
Here is my RIP IV read list
Great list! I enjoyed The Little Stranger and The Moonstone. I look forward to finding out what you decide to read.
I’m going to start Still Life tonight, hopefully.
Enjoy your spooky, creepy reads.
I’m glad you’re taking part in this too
I can’t wait to read your reviews – you’ve got a good selection to choose from.
Great list! I enjoyed Still Life; it was a fun read. Hope you will, too!
I love Ray Bradbury — I always try to have one of his books for the challenge. And I’m also going to try to read Niffenegger’s newest if I can get my hands on it…
Some interesting books on your list with some cross overs to mine. I am listening to The Little Stranger at the moment on my ipod, it’s my first audio book ever. It’s really good so far.
So what were your final decisions from the list? With the fall weather coming on I could definitely start a good mystery right now and can’t wait for some reviews to pop up!
It’s great to browse everyones list at the beginning of these challenges.
Great list!!
