I’m thrilled to be hosting the Cloak and Dagger Reading Challenge again. I love mystery and crime novels!
Challenge Rules:
- You can read any book that is from the mystery/suspense/thriller/crime genres. Any sub-genres are welcome as long as they incorporate one of these genres.

- Make a goal post and link it back here with your goal for this challenge.
- Books need to be at least 100 pages long. Please no short stories.
- Crossovers with other challenges are fine.

There will be a monthly link-up so we can see what everyone’s reading – and probably add some to our own tbr lists. At the halfway mark and at the end we will have a giveaway for those participating.

I joined the challenge at the Detective level. I accidentally put reading challenger and can’t seem to fix it, lol. I’m number 32 at Shellie Loves Books. I’ve created a page which is linked above now. I added the books I’ve already reviewed from January and February. Thanks for hosting, sounds like a lot of fun!! I see we are both in the Classics Club too 🙂
Glad you’re joining us!

Just found this and realized I’m already a Sherlock Holmes. I’m at 66 books+1 short story, with 4 more books to go.
I read three complete series: Brother Cadfael by Ellis Peters, Maggie Sullivan by M Ruth Myers, and Miss Pinkerton by Mary Roberts Rinehart. Next year? Ngaio Marsh and Dorothy Sayers. Yes, I’m a fast reader, but I’m also retired + introvert. So I have tons of free time to devote to reading!
I love Ngaio Marsh’s books. I think I’ll be hosting the challenge again next year, so feel free to join in.
