Reading Meme – Day Thirty
Day Thirty – Saddest character death Old Dan and Little Ann in Where the Red Fern Grows. My old paperback was warped from all the tears I shed over those two dogs as a kid. I think the first … Continue reading
Reading Meme – Day Twenty-nine
Day Twenty-nine– Current book obsession At the beginning of the month, I would’ve said The Black Dagger Brotherhood series, but honestly, after struggling to finish Lover Enshrined, I think the shine has worn off. I’ve set aside Lover Avenged out of … Continue reading
