Rules: For this
challenge – Each book can only be used for 1 category (Ex: Agatha Christie’s
Mousetrap – victim is strangled, the setting is in England and they are cut off from the world due to bad weather. But you can only place this story
in 1 of the categories)
The challenge runs from January 1, 2015 to December 31,
2015.
You don’t have to choose your books in advance. If you do, you can change your list at any
time during the year.
Books can be in any format – paper, ebooks, audio…
Crossovers with other
challenges are fine.
Happy reading!
