Vintage Mystery Progress and Review Site

All right, folks--2011 is here! Let the challenge begin! I am setting up this post as the place to track everyone's progress on the Vintage Mystery Reading Challenge and also to link reviews, if you review the books you read. Please either comment below with the title and author of the book read (plus link for review, if you have one) or send the info to me by email (phryne1969 AT gmail DOT com). I'll update this post with everyone's progress. I think it will be interesting for all the challengers to see what everyone is reading and also to cheer for those who finish their challenge levels.
