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!

My Life in Books: End of 2022

(Not the books read this year)

Before I do my more official (stat-oriented) year-end wrap-up, I thought I'd go ahead and do one with a bit more whimsy to it. Besides, there's still a day and a half to go and I'm hoping to finish one and a half more books to finish off my last reading challenge, so I can't do the official wrap-up yet.
