2015 Reading Challenge: Cloak and Dagger

Amy @ A Bookish Girl is hosting the 2015’s Cloak and Dagger Mystery Reading Challenge.

Here are the rules for the challenge:

1.) The challenge starts January 1, 2015 and ends  December 31, 2015.
2.) You can read any novel, short story or author just so that the genre is mystery/crime/thriller.
3.) 1 novel counts as 1 novel( 1 novel is anything over 100 pages) of course but you will have to read 5 short stories to count as 1 novel.
4.) There will be a monthly post for you to add a link or links to your post showing the progress that you have made so far. There will be two link-ups on each reading challenge post, one is a text link-up for those of you who are participating without a blog/through Goodreads/or through another way and then a thumbnail link-up for those of you that are participating from a blog.
5.) There will be a book giveaway each month and for initially signing up.

My favourite genre, of course, is mystery so I am aiming for the top-most level. i.e., 40+books, that would make me Sherlock Holmes.
