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 Thru Thursday

1. What do you think of reading aloud/being read to? Does it bring back memories of your childhood? Your children’s childhood?

2. Does this affect the way you feel about audio books?

3. Do you now have times when you read aloud or are read to?

1. I always enjoyed reading aloud to my son when he was small. It was especially fun because I discovered many wonderful children's books that I had somehow missed out on when I was a kid. And I remember with great fondness being read Here's a Bunny by my Aunt Helen. Repeatedly. I loved that book. Now, I'll read certain sections of a book to my husband if I think it's particularly funny--to mixed reviews.

2. I'm not a big fan of audio books. Not that I don't like them....but I'd just prefer to read the book myself. They're okay occasionally.

3. Not really.

Audio books are good for me for my commute to and from work. When I'm home, I prefer to read the book myself, too.

Same with me I prefer to read my books, not listening to them.

Awww...Here's a Bunny sounds adorable!
