I have never
participated in this challenge before. But this year is the thirteenth year of R.I.P. (Readers.Imbibing.Peril),
and it does make it appealing… Coincidently, I have several gothic/mystery
books on my TBR, so…why not?
This challenge
challenges us to read mystery, suspense, horror, thriller, dark fantasy, gothic
during September and October. I am starting rather late, as I have just
finished Irving Stone’s The Origin—which
is great!—today, but I think I’d be able to manage four books until end of
October.
My choices:
- The Turn of the Screw and the Aspern Papers
by Henry James
- The Innocence of Father Brown by G.K.
Chesterton
- The Blind Assassin by Margaret Atwood
- The Halloween Tree by Ray Bradbury
Interesting choices, eh? Are you joining too?
Enjoy! I plan to read The Mysteries of Udolpho and Northanger Abbey.
ReplyDeleteAhh.. I have been curious about Udolpho! It's in my Classic Club list. Have fun, JoAnn! :)
DeleteThanks for reminding me, I've been meaning to read Father Brown! And The Turn of the Screw... someday. :)
ReplyDeleteI have just started Father Brown, and it is fun, indeed!
DeleteThe Turn of the Screw - well, the story is interesting, but the writing style... :(
