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. 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!

Resist Reading Challenge


What is The Resist Reading Challenge?

***Update: Magic Resists has decided not to host after all. Unless she objects, I'm going to hang on to her Bingo card and use it for reading prompts for a little resistance-reading of my own.




In her original post, she left our goals to our own judgment. I've got my eye on at least two books that I'd like to read in 2019 (including Michelle Obama's book Becoming). In order to make it a challenge, I'm going to commit to four books. I hope to do more--but if I do four I will be able to claim the challenge as complete. I'm also going to use the Bingo card categories to help direct my choices. If I manage a bingo, that will be a bonus!

My Book List:
1. Hitler's First Victims by Timothy W. Ryback (1/24/19)
2. Code Talker by Chester Nez w/Judith Schiess Avila (3/8/18)
3. Mr. Churchill's Secretary by Susan Elia MacNeal (3/23/19)
4. Becoming by Michelle Obama (3/27/19)
Complete!
5.

Sorry Bev but I've decided not to host the challenge after all due to some personal reasons. Thanks for the interest!

I'm sorry to hear that. If you don't mind, I'm still going to use your prompts to read resistance-oriented books.
