Today I am for some reason having an extended email conversation with a scammer who is pretending to be the Thomas Harris, the author of Silence of the Lambs.

This is so funny.
For my urban history colleagues, some great titles and a chance to write a review: #historiography 🗃 #history
Would love for you to do that! Do you want to drop me an email and we can get the ball rolling?
And of course, once again I want to read all of these.
Free books (if you write a review for us)! Check out the impressive list of titles 👇
Great, we'd love that! Do you want to drop me an email at Sam[dot]wetherell[at]york.ac.uk and we can go from there?
Always excited when Sam posts a new list of books. People writing amazing work!
