MY READER'S BLOCK: Challenge Complete: Pick Your Genre

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!

Challenge Complete: Pick Your Genre

2017 Pick Your Genre Challenge

This challenge is about diving into specific genres/sub genres you love or just want to check out in 2017. So, it was a design-it-yourself challenge. We had to read at least 12 books in our chosen genre. I decided to go for 12 books in the Golden Vintage Mystery genre (pre-1960).

Here's what I read:

1. Death at Swaythling Court by J. J. Connington [1926] (1/4/17)

2. Death of a Racehorse by John Creasey [1959] (1/7/17)

3. The Snake on 99 by Stewart Farrar [1958] (1/11/17)

4. The 24th Horse by Hugh Pentecost [1940](1/13/17)

5. The Unconcscious Witiness by R. Austin Freeman [1942] (1/28/17)

6. A Losing Game by Freeman Wills Crofts [1941] (1/31/17)

7. Death Takes a Bow by Frances & Richard Lockridge [1943] (2/5/17)

8. All for the Love of a Lady by Leslie Ford [1943/44] (2/9/17)
