Challenge Commitment Complete: Medical Examiner Mystery Reading Challenge

Rick Mills plunged into the reading challenge fray for the first time this year--with a vengeance! Putting together two nifty little mystery-oriented challenges that I just couldn't resist. I immediately signed up for both and have now completed my personal quota for the Medical Examiner Mystery Reading Challenge. Rick didn't set any participation levels--but I decided that I would fill out 20 Medical Examiner Reports (read at least 20 books) in order to count it for my reading challenge tally sheet. 

I've now completed 20--but never fear, Medical Examiner Bev is still on the job and will be filling out reports for the remainder of the year.
