Add your Mystery book for the challenge.

Fictional stories, usually realistic, about a mysterious event which is not explained or a crime that is not solved until the end of the story to keep the reader in suspense.

Same here. It was one of the books included in my $20 "bag o' excellence" purchase (from the Jax big book sale) that I don't remember ever picking out.

It's supposed to be a good one!

I would be jealous of your puny book sale, but I'm not. MUAHAHAHA!!!

The best part is all the books are donated to the library for the sale. So they weren't ever actually library books. No tacky shelving numbers/ jacket cover protecters etc. They also have an entire "popular reading list" section with all the good stuff. Only prob is, nothing's in alphabetical order. Erg!

Hahaha. By the time I went (in Jax) those were so picked through! I did score The Guardian and a dilapidated copy of Three Weeks With My Brother, both of which I have yet to read. My "to-read" shelf is rapidly getting out of control.

We spend too much of our spare time on Goodreads? ;) Hahaha.

That's true. After all, what's 2 out of 24 hours? Not much time, that's what.
