Leslie ~ Congrats on the three you got done. The good thing about these mini chalelnges is that 1) you don't have to do them all, you can do as many as you want/are able to do, and 2) the books don't have to be mysteries, taking into account that many people read across different genres. I had mystery, romance and YA books this month.

Thanks Heather! I actually read quite a few mysteries during May but most of them didn't fit into the categories...

Congrats Lynne! Congrats Leslie! And, as Heather says, the good thing is they're quite free.
