Are we starting the contest now?!
Holy cow, I can't believe there are reviews up already. How exciting!
Yea!!!!!!!
Cool challenge, Carl! I'm excited about this one! I wasn't disappointed last time when I tried a genre that I don't usually read...the Sci-Fi challenge! You are very inspiring :D
Have a Great Labor Day Weekend and Happy Reading!
There are so many reviews already! It's really great! Wonderful challenge, Carl!
Hi, didn't intend to count Skellig for the challenge but it seems appropriate and DesLily suggested I post a link, it is a great book. Thanks for this fun challenge. Enjoying following the links to great books.
Okay, I finished my first book in the challenge and still have to write the review but I just wanted to say I loved it and this is so much fun!
I just posted my review of Jane and the Barque of Frailty.

Just finished my review of South of Broad by Pat Conroy... loved this book... a big thanks for letting me play along...
The book I reviewed at my site, Professor B. Worm, is The Cellar by Richard Laymon. Both the book and the review are horrorful.
The Cellar
Hi Carl!
I had to re-post my 2 reviews -- they are now 201 & 202. My old site got hacked to pieces. Twice in 24hrs this time. An ongoing problem. . .so I have set up new digs here: http://blacklinsreadingroom.blogspot.com/. My "new" site name is Blacklin's Reading Room. Sorry for double posting.
Finished the challenge :
I read:
Alymer Vance - Ghost Seer
2 Daughters of Darkness: Lesbian Vampire Stories
3 Night Shift by Lilith Saintcrow
4 Hunter's Prayer (Jill Kismet Books) by Lilith Saintcrow
Round up here: http://lyndasbookblog.blogspot.com/2009/09/rip-challenge-iv-completed.html
I'm enjoying this challenge so far. I just posted my second review for Gordon Dahlquist's "Glass Books of the Dream Eaters". Quite an original read!
Just finished my first review, onward!!!
I just posted a review for Night Runner. Unfortunately, I forgot to put the title next to my name, so I entered it again. Sorry for the double link.
I just posted my first review for this challenge. In the Woods by Tana French but I don't think I linked it correctly in Mr Linky.

I suck at technology.
First review posted here - and I think I did Mr. Linky right this time. Yeah!

Thank you so much for hosting this challenge - it's perfect for Fall. I'm working on Peril the Second - I'm not brave enough yet for Peril the First. My review for Walter Moers' The Alchemaster's Apprentice is up.... it's a dark comedy/fantasy which I thought was a good read for all ages. Enjoy!
Just posted the most recent review, really enjoyed this challenge, I may be more ambitious next year and try for peril the first. Still enjoying reading everyone's reviews, I have discovered a few books to add to my wish list. Thank you.
I am half way through - and decided (and reading) the previously undecided 4th book - Uncle Montague's Tales of Terror by Chris Priestly - what a WOW, WOW, WOW book - in fact all the books I have read so far have been wow!!
I have read 6 and still going strong!
Wow, I've just finished my first and I can't believe my eyes. So many fabulous reviews already up. :-D Good job everyone!
Just linked my review to In Cold Blood..
Ya know, I forgot about the bad part of reading challenges when my TBR pile is already falling over in several piles of books. There are so many books that I want to read among the reviews I may never catch up on my reading.
This is so fun! Thanks for hosting this. Just finished The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane. Just one more to go for Peril the Second!
Wow, I'm so late getting my first review up. We got Flu of Doom here early. But I read and loved The Graveyard Book, and I'm catching up on the reviews here now.
I dare you to read my R.I.P. IV post!
Carl ... I have just done my 8th RIP post (not counting Poe Fridays) and have five more scheduled and a couple more books in the queue that I'm determined to read this month. Do I have a problem? ;)
I need to stop posting late at night; I keep screwing it up!
A thousand pardons.
I finished my book, We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson. I linked to my review! I'm so glad that I could participate in this challenge this year. Thanks for hosting!
Just completed the second and final book for the challenge. Some how my link did not work when I signed up so here is the final review.
