Themed Reading Challenge Completed

>> Monday, May 12, 2008



Now that I’ve finished Harvest, I have another challenge to move to the completed list. The Themed Reading Challenge was the brainchild of Wendy of Caribousmom. The great thing about this one was it was kind of a build your own challenge opportunity. Participants had to choose at least 4 books that shared a theme. It didn’t matter what the theme was, it was our choice.

I confess I lacked the creativity of many of the participants when it came to the theme I chose, but what the heck – it was my choice.

My theme was “Books with One Word Titles”. These are the books I read for this challenge:

Faithless by Karin Slaughter – book # 5 in her Grant County series. It’s a brutal but well written series that I continue to enjoy despite the cringeworthy aspects and one character that I really don’t like at all.

Amnesia by G.H. Ephron – a new series for me. Good enough that I’m planning #2 for the Medical Mystery Challenge.

Undercurrents by Ridley Pearson – another new series for me. This is the first in his Lou Boldt / Daphne Matthews series and I really enjoyed it.

Lottery by Patricia Wood – A utterly charming book with an utterly charming hero. I’d love to meet Perry L. Crandall.

Harvest by Tess Gerritsen - A well done medical mystery. I may add another one by Gerritsen to my Medical Mystery Challenge list.

YAY! Congratulations on finishing the challenge, Suzi :) I like your theme - I don't think it lacks imagination at all!! Hope you'll join me again next year when I host this one again (although I may add an additional twist...not sure yet!)

Congrats! I don't think I'll be able to finish this one, I have one book on the list that I doubt I will get to.

Wendy: thanks - it was actually a fun theme once I picked it. Looking forward to next year's version of the challenge :-)

Nyssaneala: Maybe you can substitute another (shorter) book.

Nyssaneala - Yes, please don't hesitate to substitute a book ... I don't mind :)
