Hype!

You think King knew it was fake from the start?

I'd like readers to consider the evidence in “Veritas” and decide for themselves.

She didn't present photographs when she first announced the papyrus to her colleagues. That immediately raised alarms, that she didn't give her own colleagues the evidence needed to evaluate the papyrus. And she didn't release images of the other key piece in Fritz's collection, a fragment supposedly from the Gospel of John, which top scholars of Coptic had marked as a forgery within hours of seeing it.

Why withhold evidence from colleagues if you believe it's authentic? Did she know it was fake and thought the ends justify the means? Was she willing to use a fake sensation to whet the public's appetite for this other interesting object (the Gnostic gospels)? To use a forgery to point to the truth?

Some people do a 600-calorie maximum, and some don't fast. Taking the max from 800 to 600 will make your average metabolic rate lower, and cutting out the fast will not allow you to fully capitalize on the heightened metabolic rate that you'll have after consuming 800 calories the previous day. Therefore, the standard 2468 probably works the best. Though some people even fast for two days at the end. It's all up to you.

I read a book a day on average so probably 130 or so. They'll be 99% romance - SFR with the occasional CR or romantasy book plus the occasional Sci Fi book that's not SFR.

So far I'm at 159 for the year. That doesn't count novellas, as I don't log them. There are also a handful of books I don't log in Goodreads for personal reasons. My primary genre is romance by a wide margin; I've read a handful of thrillers.

I've read/listened to 30 books this year! I've pretty sure I DNF'd twice that but I'm a mood reader lol. Mostly romance with nearly half of my list being Beverly Jenkins, so that makes the bulk of it historical romance. My biggest surprise was probably {The Wallflower Wager by Tessa Dare}, it was super hot. And technically not a romance but {Mama Day by Gloria Naylor} might be my new favorite book ever; it has a great love story with some amazing rural magical realism.

160 so far this year; several were re-reads. Only about 6 were audiobooks. My average book length is around 200 pages. But this week I've been in a reading slump and haven't read as much even though I have time!
