Sarah (Mood Reader) (bookworm1887) I can't figure out how to add another thread. However some of my ideas for the first upcoming challenge are the following... let me know what you think and if you have some of your own to throw in there!

Cornwell's - birthday is in June so let's read one of her books.

Fiona and Kandice - are the lovely group's moderators so why not read a mystery/thriller from both of their shelves that have 5 stars.

The Zodiac - The movie was put out in August so why not read a book about the Zodiac killer or some other serial killer?

First book in a mystery series you've never read before - Why not try to get into a set of mysteries you've never read before?

Chris (cdsmith15) I like Sarah's reading from Fiona and Kandice's shelf. Why don't we expand that and read one from each others shelf that has 4/5 stars?
