I tend to post a review on every book I read mainly for myself to remind myself about what I liked or disliked about it. The problem is that it wouldn't really apply to others as everyone has different tastes and I don't see a lot of crime/mystery readers. I don't expect anyone really to take much notice the same way, I don't tend to respond to books that I don't read. A lot of books that I read just for challenges often are not popular or very interesting, so I can see those of us that try to maximise points bogging down this thread. Just saying I think there probably is enough discussion without adding this.

Thanks Michelle for another fun challenge.
