Happy RIP season! I’ve been taking part since RIP IV – it was the very first challenge I took part in, so it will always be special! Every September 1 through October 31 for the last 11 years Carl from Stainless Steel Droppings has hosted the R.eaders I.mbibing P.eril Challenge, affectionately known as the R.I.P. Challenge. And now it’s being run by Andi of Estelle’s Revenge and Heather of My Capricious Life.
But it remains the same, it’s always about books of:
“Read four books, any length, that you feel fit (our very broad definitions) of R.I.P. literature. It could be Stephen King or Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Shirley Jackson or Tananarive Due…or anyone in between.”
I’ve decided this year to focus on women writers!
Here’s my pool:
The Vicious Deep – Zoraida Cordova
Ink and Ashes – Valence E. Maetani
Waiting on a Bright Moon – JY Yang
The Reader – Traci Chee
The Chaos – Nalo Hopkinson
Lagoon – Nnedi Okorafor
City of the Lost – Kelley Armstrong
The Witches of New York – Ami McKay
The Unquiet Dead – Ausma Zehanat Khan
Happy RIP, Sharlene! I look forward to reading your thoughts on these books. 🙂
