Challenge complete! R.I.P. IV

I’ve completed yet another challenge, this time the R.I.P. IV challenge hosted by Carl.

When I joined RIP IV I had a whole list of books I wanted to read, way more than the four I signed up for. I got distracted this month by historical fiction and so I didn’t get to all those books, but I did read one that was on my list: The Ghost Writer.

I had a lot of fun doing this challenge! I think next year, though, I’m going to make more of an effort to read older horror books instead of all these new ones I ended up reading. I still haven’t read Frankenstein and I’m stuck partway through Dracula, and there’s loads more I’ve never read before. So next RIP is definitely Old Classics for me.

The final list:
1. The Ghost Writer – John Harwood
2. The Uninvited – Tim Wynne-Jones
3. The Monstrumologist – Rick Yancey
4. The Ghost and Mrs McClure – Alice Kimberly

My favorite book read for this challenge is for sure The Monstrumologist. It has everything I want in a horror book: monsters, suspense, thrills, chills, and a setting so dark I don’t think daylight was even MENTIONED.
