The Mystillery hosts reading challenges for mystery readers and I have played along for several years.

The Medical Examiner Mystery got me 100 books for a total of 347 toe tags, earning me the Brass Bone Saw.

I racked up 12 notches in The Six Shooter Mystery, which has the goal to shoot (read) six mysteries by the same target (author).

I did finished the new Mystery Marathon in 104 days, using 8827 steps (or pages). The Mystillery also hosts 2 seasonal games that add some fun to the year, & I completed the Ten Pins bowling game & AbraCadavers baseball game.

Thank you to Rick for making mystery reading so fun!
