SCAM artist alert

Apparently there is someone calling themself "Luigi Calloway" out there who is claiming to be associated with the Mount TBR Reading Challenge. He is contacting authors and telling them if they pay him, then their books will be used for the challenge. It's possible he's also telling people they must pay to participate in any way. Please know that there is absolutely no charge associated in any way with this reading challenge and that this person does not represent me or anything associated with my blog. There will NEVER be a reason for anyone to have to pay for participation in any way for any of my challenges. If only people who exert this much time and effort on scamming people would put it into something worthwhile....like reading their own books!

Booking Through Thursday: It's Hot


This week Booking Through Thursday has this for us:

Well, folks, I don't know about where you are, but right here, it's HOT.


So...when you think about "hot reading," what does that make you think of? Beach reading? Steamy romances? Books that take place in a hot climate? Or cold ones?
***************************************************************
Well...where I am it is also HOT. The powers-that-be have decided that since there's a heat advisory today, it must be too hot to run the air conditioning. We might overheat the poor little machinery. Or some such nonsense. But to the question....When I think of "hot reading" I think of a book that has such a hot story line or hot characterization or both that I just can't put it down. It must be read right now and in one sitting....and don't even think about interrupting me with mundane things like "When's dinner?" or "Bev, when are you coming to bed?" Of course, it also means a good, steamy romance novel...although I only go for those once in a while. You might say I have to be in the mood. :-)

I totally agree with your definition for me it's a boo that totally keeps you trapped between the covers...sometimes even after it's over.
Heres mine!
