I don't think anyone created a straight up mystery challenge. We have a cozy challenge and a historical mystery challenge. Would anyone like to create one? If not I could propabably come up with something 

Maybe we could suggest some categories?

Police procedurals

Mystery set in a different country

New to you author

Read next book in series

Read a mystery that scared you

Other ideas

Ideas?  Include two to three choices for each listing.  Gives latitude for wouldbe participants.

  • Mysteries written by women
  • Medical or legal mysteries
  • Private eye or old time noir mystery
  • Comic mystery like Stephanie Plum, for example
  • Locked room mystery
  • Mystery with a hint of the supernatural
  • Mystery that takes place during a holiday

Guess you can't tell I like mysteries wink

Doesn't seem to be  huge amount of interest so I will pass on starting one up but if someone else would like to create  challenge please feel free.
