The What an Animal Reading Challenge IV ends at the end of this 
month on February 29th. Our new challenge will begin on 
March 1, 2012 and end on February 28, 2013. 
The rules are really simple...


1. Read at least 6 books that have any of the following 

requirements:


a. there is an animal in the title of the book

b. there is an animal on the cover of the book

c. an animal plays a major role in the book

d. a main character is (or turns into) an animal 

(define that however you'd like).

2. The animal can be any type of animal (real or fictitious)--dog, 

cat, monkey, wolf, snake, insect, hedgehog, aardvark...dragon, 
mermaid, centaur, vampire, werewolf...you get the idea...


3. Challenge runs from March 1, 2012 to February 28, 2013. 

That’s a full year to read at least 6 books (you can read more 
if you’d like). You can still sign up after March 1st as long as 
you can get 6 books read by February 28, 2013).


4. Books can be fiction or nonfiction.


5. You may make a list of books at the beginning of the 

challenge or you can just list them as you find them.


6. Book titles may be swapped out at anytime 

(assuming you made a list to begin with).


7. Crossovers with other challenges are permitted 

and encouraged.


8. You don't have to have a blog or write a review, 

but you can if you want to.
 If you don't have a blog, 
just post in the comment section that you'd like to join. 
You can post your books in there.

9. Books can be in any format of your choice 

(print, audio, ebooks)

I posted my "Reading Challenges Wrap-up" post today.

"What is a cozy Mystery?"

A cozy mystery contains no explicit sex and contains no excessive gore or violence. It usually takes place in a close-knit setting with a limited group of suspects. The cozy is light-heart in tone rather than heavy. The main focus of the book is a puzzle and always centers around "whodunit."
