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 August

For those of you participating in the 2013 TBR Challenge, this is a reminder that your "commentary" is due on Wednesday, August 21.

The theme this month is Steamy Reads.   We're in the dog days of summer, which means it's time to turn up the heat!  Erotica, erotic romance, or if you're not an "erotic" fan?  A nice sensual book heavy on tension works just as well.  However remember, the themes are totally and completely optional.  Maybe there's nothing in your TBR that fits, or maybe you're not in the mood for chandelier-swinging sex.  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.

Details about the challenge and a list of participants can be found here.

Thanks for this challenge. I am not a steamy reader really most of the time anyway. But there was a series I wanted to try, and this month's challenge pushed me into reading the first one. Loved it and now on the third in series. With more to come. Wonderful.

Kathryn: That's what happened to me! I ended up going with the first book in a trilogy and really enjoyed it immensely.
