* All books
must be from the mystery category (crime fiction, detective fiction, espionage,
etc.). The mystery/crime must be the primary feature of the
book--ghost stories, paranormal, romance, humor, etc are all welcome as
ingredients, but must not be the primary category under which these
books would be labeled at the library or bookstore.
*Challengers may play either the Silver Age or Golden Age Card—or both.
*BINGOS may
be claimed by completing all spaces in a row--horizontally, vertically, or
diagonally. You may also claim a “Four
Corner” BINGO by reading a book for each of the four corners plus two more
spaces—any two. A valid BINGO must have six
complete spaces.
