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!

Murder Every Monday: If You Can't See Me, How Did You Find Me?

 


Kate at Cross Examining Crime hosts a fun mystery cover game on Instagram called Murder Every Monday. Our assignment, should we choose to accept it, is to display book covers and titles from books you own that meet prompts which she posts well in advance (see link). 

Today's theme is books with a character that is blind. This was a tough one. I know that I've read (and own) more books with blind characters, but I can't seem to think of them. I've hunted down every one of them that I've reviewed, but there were others read before blogging that are going to be missed.

Most of these have a blind detective--if only briefly. The John Creasey book finds Inspector West temporarily blinded by a former "client" bent on revenge. Kendrick and Bramah both feature very talented blind detectives. Christie features a blind woman who has a corpse foisted upon her and Dalton features blind victim.
