We are approaching that time of mists and mellow fruitfulness when any
sensible person tucks themselves into bed with a steaming mug of hot chocolate
and a suitably creepy book to while away the long evenings. I can hardly
believe that a year has passed since I took part in RIP VII, but it has and
Carl has announced this year’s Challenges. Check them out and sign up to join
in the fun at Stainless
Steel Droppings.
This year has been more than a little manic, so I
think that I will only be able to complete Peril of the Group Read, which
involves reading The Historian by Elizabeth Kostava. The Read Along is being
hosted by The Estella Society,
so you can head over there and sign up for that as well!
I'm in for Peril The First. Can't wait! :D
ReplyDeleteI did that last year, but I don't see how I can fit it in with the astronomical TBR pile that I have, and I am waaaay behind with reviews as well . . . :(
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you'll enjoy it though, and I look forward to reading your reviews! :)
Enjoy your read-along! Carl's challenges are so laid-back, they're perfect for hectic times!
ReplyDeleteThat's quite true: he makes allowances for those of us with less than perfect organizational skills! :)
DeleteOh, I've done this one before (the book, I mean). I can't say that very often with you power-readers so I have to take the chance now that I have it. :P
ReplyDeleteI am soooo not a power reader! :D
DeleteI started The Historian and am really enjoying it so far. Glad to have you joining in!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the selection last year (The Little Stranger by Sarah Waters), so I am looking forward to this one.
DeleteI really enjoyed this event last year. I've read The Historian years ago, loved it, and so jumped on board for this read along even though life is pretty crazy on the farm right now.
