SCAM artist alert

Apparently there is someone calling himself "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. I DO NOT endorse anything that he claims.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! A message to Luigi: Please cease and desist contacting authors (or anyone) in my name or claiming to represent this reading challenge. You absolutely DO NOT.

It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a bookish meme hosted by Book Journey. It's where we gather to share what we have read this past week and what we plan to read this week. It's a great way to network with other bloggers, see some wonderful blogs, and put new titles on your reading list. So hop on over via the link above and join in...and leave a comment here so I can check out what you are reading.
 
Thanks to Michelle@Seasons of Reading and her High Summer Read-a-thon, I got a ton of reading done last week. Here's list:
 

Books Read (click on titles for review): 
Dead Old by Maureen Carter
The Case of the Careless Kitten by Erle Stanley Gardner 
Capacity for Murder by Bernadette Pajer 
Mist on the Saltings by Henry Wade 
The Black Stage by Anthony Gilbert
Winnie-the-Pooh by A. A. Milne 
The House at Pooh Corner by A. A. Milne 
The World of Christopher Robin by A. A. Milne 
 

Currently Reading: 
The Mind of the Maker by Dorothy L. Sayers:  Dorothy Sayers sheds new, unexpected light on a specific set of statements made in the Christian creeds. She examines anew such ideas as the image of God, the Trinity, free will, and evil, and in these pages a wholly revitalized understanding of them emerges. The author finds the key in the parallels between the creation of God and the human creative process. She continually refers to each in a way that illuminates both.

   
Books that spark my interest:
Andersen's Fairy Tales by Hans Christian Andersen
The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton (only because I need it for challenges...I was uninspired when I tried it a month or so ago....Picked up the audio version--hoping that will work out better.)
The Scarlet Macaw by S.P. Hozy  
Murder by the Book by Eric Brown

What a nice variety of books. I hope The Age of Innocence works better as an audiobook. Come see my Monday wrap-up. Have a great reading week.
