I've had this book for years but have never read it for some reason. I actually brought it to work with me, because Tuesdays are a particularly slow day where I work, and I have this nice little plan to start a classic novel every Tuesday. At some point, it went from "classic novel" to "just any book" to "pages with words on them," so that's how I ( Read more... )

OK, apologies that this took so long. Our internet decided to die a week ago so I have to do this at the library. This is an even worse excuse, but I left my book next to the window and it got rained on heavily. It's still readable though.

So far I’ve found... well, this one. Bear with me, it’s stupidly long. I don’t have the art of concise recapping down yet ( Read more... )

Sweet Valley High #51: Against the Odds

So, here’s the thing. My husband (HEE! We’ve been married seven months but I still can’t hear that without cracking up) is at poker for the next four hours or so. What’s a girl supposed to do?
