It's a Mystery


BOOK CHALLENGE 4/1000

I tried to take a little break from the reading challenge but I can't be without a book or two on the go. Am I the only person who is happy to be reading more than one book? Clint thinks this is strange but we all watch more than one TV programme and still manage to follow along so I can't see the problem. Anyway, The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins was my next choice from the list. My reasons were threefold, one, it's on the list, two, it's on the DS cartridge so I had it available and three, I haven't read it before. It has been very long time since I have read a mystery (I seem to have been reading a lot of Sci-fi/Fantasy in recent years) and I had forgotten how much I like them. From the first chapter I was hooked. Every free moment took me back to read some more. I couldn't wait to find out who this Woman in White was. I'm really looking forward to reading the other book on the list from Wilkie Collins.

I said I didn't want to race through the list and I wasn't going to set myself any time constraints. I am a little concerned, though, that at the current rate (average 2 books per week) this challenge is going to take me about 10 years to complete! I'd better start looking after myself a little better or I'll never complete it.
