[Sacha]

Hi everyone, I'm Sacha Haughtee. I didn't plan to ever write a book, it just happened. I met this nice older gentleman client (Max), and he introduced me to the first girl that I ever played with (Little Lisa). I said something during our date that he thought was too funny. He told some buddies. They told him is was the funniest thing they'd ever heard. This is how Chapter 9 of our first book happened. We dedicated the book to Little Lisa. It is a true story.

I wrote this book to dispel the myths about escorts, and to tell my own story. The title is: "ESCORT - The True Story of an Orange County Call Girl" by: Sacha Haughtee and Max Spacer

Here's my favorite excerpt:

"If only I knew at the time that this day would be the point of no return, that once a girl crosses certain moral and personal boundaries, there's no going back."

Book Genre: Adult Contemporary Romance, Memoir, Erotic, non-fiction, novel-length, true story, dual narrators, sexual self-discovery.

Length: 429 pages in print, approximately 115,000 words.

Notes and disclaimers regarding content: adult-themed content and language, explicit sex scenes, M/F mostly, some M/F/F, prostitution, daddy-complex, and some fetish activities.

You can read the first three chapters at the FREE Preview on my author's page or at CreateSpace:

XXXOOO,

Hello, I'm Willow! I'm a 25 year old college student and I love love love to read. I heard about this challenge on the Dear Book Nerd podcast and I'm really excited about participating. Coming into this particular challenger in the middle, I don't expect to finish it...but I would really like to clear as many books as possible from my TBR pile, which includes over 100 books I physically own and shamefully haven't read yet.

Me too!

[Brenna]

Hi, I'm Brenna and I am a fifth grade teacher in South Carolina. I heard about the challenge on the Dear Book Nerd podcast and thought it would be a good way to get through my ever expanding TBR pile. I don't read as much as I used to, due to the nature of my job, but I am so excited to get started with this challenge!

[Morgan]

Hi new people! I started just over a year ago and my usual reading amount -- which I thought was pretty hefty has had a 400% increase since starting the challenge. My best friend who was the one who talked me into joining has had an even bigger increase in her reading, so it really does work!

(The only problem is seeing/hearing about so many other good books that you'll add to your TBR....)

Good luck whittling down those TBR piles! ;)

[Emily]

Hi everyone! I am completely new to this. I am excited to try something that will push me to read more of my TBR list/piles. I also am in love with the nature of the challenge. I am an avid reader, but not a huge book challenge person. A new booky friends encouraged me to try this, so here goes!

[NV]

Hello,

I'm Naitasia and new to the challenge. I heard about it from Dear Book Nerd podcast and the synopsis given was very intriguing!

I am planning to jump in when winter starts and looking forward to it.

[Heather(Gibby)]

Where can we get the Dear Book Nerd podcast? is it a website or app?

[NV]

I listen to it on my iPhone podcast app. Here is the website for the podcast. http://bookriot.com/category/dear-boo...

Hi everybody! My name is Drishti and I'm 14. I just stumbled onto this group while group browsing on Goodreads. The challenge appears to be an exciting one. I'm excited to join! :D

[Jane]

You are only 14 and you want to be with us. Great!

[Drishti]

I have a busy studies schedules, but I absoutely can't live without reading. It's like rooted in my body system. So, somehow, I make time for it. :D

[Jane]

Great! Keep it up. Genre favorites?

[Drishti]

Genre favourites......ummm....... fantasy, mythology and anything YA. But, I hate the love triangles that the authors force into almost every book. I'm planning on starting paranormal books, too.

[Akhil]

Hey everyone! My name is Akhil, I am 20 years old and I am from India(southern part of the country to be precise).
My love for reading started way back in high school where we had this school library and were allowed to borrow a book for a week, I was never much of a reader back then, always tended to be brief with my readings, one day my school hosted this book sale and the very first series I bought was His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman and since it was something I had purchased I wanted to stick with it for every page and before I knew it, I was completely in love with the story, the characters,the setting and almost everything the book had to offer. Within a couple of weeks I was done with the series and wanted more of this amazing experience and thus became the avid reader I am now.
The genres I normally go for is
-fiction
-contemporary
-a little of mystery/suspense
The moment I stumbled up on this website the one thing that stuck to me is the sheer amount of books that are out there for me to read is just overwhelming.
It's really sad that none of the people I know have a habit of reading but it's equally exciting for me to be able to talk to all of my fellow book readers and share my experiences.

I just can't wait to be a part of something this amazing.

[Jane]

Good going! Reading takes you to worlds normally beyond your reach and there will never be an end!

[Heather]

Hi,

My name is Heather. I am a member of The Next Best Book Club and found this group through them. This group seems like a lot of fun. What a great idea! So glad I found it at the start of a new challenge. Can't wait to get started!

[Elysha]

Hi!

I'm Elysha, and I'm just getting back into reading for fun after graduating from university. I figure some challenges can help me out with this goal!

[Jane]

Goodreads is a great incentive to keep track and keep up with your reading.

[Natasha]

My name is Natasha. I love reading and reading challenges. When I'm not reading, I enjoy playing video games, doing jigsaw puzzles, watching hockey, and playing with my reptiles.

[Jackie]

Enjoying the challenges and exposure to different types of books! Books and cats - life is good!!!

[Fatemeh]

Hi! I'm Alexandra and I'm 19 years old.
I love challenges and what better than a reading challenge?!
I'll try to have fun and do as much as I can!
Other things that I enjoy are watching movies, listening to music and slacking in my studies!

[Colin]

Hi All....I'm Colin.
I recently published my first book, "Is This Your Man?".
It's a self-help dating and relationship book based on 6 Real Men Telling Real Stories. My book equips women with the tools to become more aware of the games that men play in dating & relationships.
I look forward to interacting with group.

Best Regards,

[Gabriella]

Hey! I'm Gabriella, 21.
I think this is an amazing idea, even though I won't be able to read books of every category because they are so many! I got really overwhelmed yesterday when I saw it. But I'll try, at least.

Gabriella, most of our readers go into the challenge knowing they will not be able to read that many books. The fun is in stretching your reading boundaries. Enjoy!

Thanks!
Yeah, I was reading some stuff here and I saw that everyone is pretty conscious that it's kinda impossible. Either way, I'm having lots of fun trying to choose a book from my shelves and put it into a category. But I keep changing the selection every day, so, I think I'll end up reading at least a good portion of the 271 books waiting for me.

[Jane]

Good idea!

Hi, Gabriella. Seems like you have found the fun for lots of us...as well as the indecision. :)

[Marie]

Greetings and Salutations! I'm really looking forward to joining the Spring 2016 Challenge and expanding my reading list to genres that I normally wouldn't pick up. I just started reading for pleasure again after a long hiatus. Why the hiatus? I would get terrible headaches while reading--it only took me 7 LONG YEARS to realize that I need bifocals!!!! AGH:) Thanks for the add....
