MY READER'S BLOCK: Book Beginnings

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!

Book Beginnings

Book Beginnings on Friday is a meme now hosted by Katy at A Few More Pages. Anyone can participate; just share the opening sentence (or two) of your current read, making sure that you include the title and author so others know what your're reading.

Here's mine from Our Lady of the Lost and Found by Diane Schoemperlen:

Looking back on it now, I can see there were signs. In the week before it happened, there was a string of unusual events that I noticed but did not recognize.

Thanks for participating! I blew it and my post didn't publish like it was supposed to this morning. So I'm adding your link right now to the link-up. :); November 6, 2010 at 1:50 AM
Laurel-Rain Snow said...: I like that kind of opener...the narrator catches our attention with "something" that has happened, and then prepares to go back and tell us more.

Thanks for sharing.

Here's mine, which I just posted:
