I played it safe this round and didn't spell out too much. Maybe for Summer....

SPRING COMPLETED

I'm looking forward to SUMMER!

Congratulations, Cheryl! Yes, I agree that 'N' is hard to find! In fact, that is the only letter that will prevent me from completing the challenge. :-(

[Heather L , Cozy Mysteries Moderator]

Congrats, Moondance!

Still have two to go for my second word... :-\

Thanks! I do have some 'N' books. It's just that I can't seem to fit it in by the time the challenge ends because of other challenges going on. I probably could if I could find an audio book, though.

How about Agatha Christie's NemesisNemesis. It is available in audiobook.

Also Not in the Flesh: A Wexford Novel (Chief Inspector Wexford Mysteries)by Ruth Rendell and A Nice Derangement of Epitaphs (Inspector George Felse Mystery) by Ellis Peters are available in audio.

There may be others that you can find from this link. http://www.cozy-mystery.com/blog/cate...

FINISHED!!! This is the first time I have done a seasonal challenge. I am excited to say that I challenged myself to do even more than I originally planned (I added four more books with another word).

Now I know about what my pace is, I may challenge myself for even more. So excited to see what Summer brings!

[Kimberly]

Congratulations Valerie! :)

Way to go, Linda! I'm feeling pressured to get mine done. Two books to go and just over a week to do it. Eek!

[Leslie]

Wow over 30 new messages since I last checked this thread! Congrats to everyone who is done!

I am done with the phrase I ended up choosing (MEMORIAL DAY) if I use one non-mystery but I will continue to try to get that last letter to be a mystery as well! I still have 9 days :-)
