Amazon discontinued the ability to create images using their SiteStripe feature and in their infinite wisdom broke all previously created images on 12/31/23. Many blogs used this feature, including this one. Expect my archives to be a hot mess of broken book cover images until I can slowly comb through 20 years of archives to make corrections.

Reminder: TBR Challenge For May

For those of you participating in the 2013 TBR Challenge, this is a reminder that your "commentary" is due on Wednesday, May 15.

The theme this month is More Than One.  Picking up a book by an author who has more than one book in your TBR pile.  However remember, the themes are totally and completely optional.  Maybe you feel like reading a debut book by an author who hasn't published a second book yet?  Or maybe you're not insane like the rest of us and don't collect whole backlists.  Hey, that's totally cool!  The themes aren't important - it's the act of reading something, anything!, that has been lying neglected in your TBR pile.

And hey, look at that - it's only May!  And it's certainly never too late to sign up for the challenge.  Details and more information can be found here.  You'll also find a list of the current participants, should you wish to follow along.

I'm on it! I just finished reading my pick. At least I think it'll be the one ... I mean it is from my tbr.. and I do have more than one of this author's books on my WISH list tbr. I'm thinking of making that count. ;)

I missed the deadline for April because my computer crashed but I'm back online and I will be posting it soon. I'm currently working on my May review :-)

Well, we'll see if the host makes it this month! 250 pages to read still and a review to write. Oy!

I was determined to be on time this month! Usually a few days late. So I determined how much I would need to read and a night to write review. I'm going to make it.

WooHoo! I made it! Of course it required me to stay up until 1AM to finish my chosen book - but it was a good one, so that wasn't a hardship. Although working the next day? Maybe staying up until 1AM wasn't the smartest idea I've ever had :)
