The Suspense & Thriller Challenge called for 6 different subgenres during 2008 and 6 more in 2009. I have completed the 2008 requirement, but will continue to add and broaden the subgenres throughout the year. This is my favorite genre, so the fun continues!
Thank you J. Kaye from J. Kaye's Book Blog for hosting this challenge.

ReplyDeleteAnother challenge I'm super freakin' excited about...and yet haven't read book one for yet. I'm not quite hopeless, but I'm on the verge...
Debi ~ LOL You have been having fun with the fantasy and fairy tales, so give yourself a break! I really am glad that you have found much pleasure in those genres. I tried and it's just not for me. However, suspense and thrillers . . . love them! This challenge has been fun to mix up the type of thriller I read.
