MY READER'S BLOCK: The Pig on the Hill

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!

The Pig on the Hill

The Pig on the Hill (2013) by John Kelly

Pig is a very precise pig. He likes things just so--nice and quiet so he can enjoy his hobbies. No one else around and he has a beautiful view with no neighbors to block the scenery. And then Duck discovers the little hill nearby, builds a house, and everything changes. I just listened to/watched Pierce Brosnan read this over on YouTube (I went down one of those YouTube rabbit holes that led me to Pierce reading). It's a cute little story about learning to be friends with someone who is totally different and (quite literally) building bridges in relationships. A delightful book. But...let's be honest...Pierce Brosnan could read the telephone book to me and I'd probably give it five stars.
