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! A message to Luigi: Please cease and desist contacting authors (or anyone) in my name or claiming to represent this reading challenge. You absolutely DO NOT.

Murder Every Monday: The Case of....The Missing Monday

 


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/or titles  from books we own that match the prompts she posts in advance (see link).

My intention is to also post about them here on the blog. Periodically, I manage to miss Monday and post on some other day. Last week, I managed to miss posting at all. So...for your viewing pleasure I bring you both this week's prompt: Titles that begin with "The Case of" as well as last week's prompt: Cover with sunrise or sunset on.

I think your library would terrify me at its size.

Especially when they're stacked up in TBR mountains. LOL!
