Paranormal Challenge

I'll try to do the Paranormal Challenge for 2009. I will do it alone, but if you're interested, let me know. I'd love to have some company!

What?
For the challenge you will read books with paranormal aspects - this can be werewolves, vampires, fairies, witches, ghosts, mediums, psychics etc. It's pretty much your pick!

When?
The challenge will start January 1, 2009 and end December 31, 2009.

How?
The goal is to read 2+ books in 2009, that's it. It should be manageable, I'd say

To sign up, please leave a comment here with a link to your blog post.

My list:
1) MaryJanice Davidson: Undead And Unappreciated
2) Nalini Singh: Slave To Sensation

EDIT:
Of course I read more, but I'll leave it at that for the list.

The participants are:
1) Kathrin
2) Lindy
3) Sally906

I like the multitude of characters, vampires are not especially my favorite, but ghosts I love. We have to read 2 a month? seems a lot Lindy

I'm in on this one as well as the vampire one :)

Like the other - I have committed to reading two over the full year - but will probably read a lot more :)

@ Lindy: No, not 2 a month, 2 books in the entire year of 2009! I could never manage that many books LOL So, since I like to read a broad variety, I came to the conclusion that a few small ones would be great... Like mini-challenges that can be finished in a year's time :)

@ Sally: Glad you're in :) I'll link to your blog some time tomorrow or the day after, once I've gotten some sleep.

Jenny said...

I'll probably be reading stuff like this anyway already have some books in mind. Thanks.

Kisha said...

I'm doing this one as well. Hope you don't mind, I had to make it 2 a month for me, simply because I mostly read paranormal, I just really wanted to say I was doing this one lol
