ReplyDeleteSo many great books, Lena! I loved Purge and heard so much good about Cutting for Stone and Edgar Sawtelle (both are on my wishlist).
ReplyDeleteHave fun with these wonderful books!
I am currently reading "The Kid," and sad to say I truly wasted my money.this book is so hard to follow. It's like a bad ADHD day. The main character is really hard to like. The way it is written is so ......ahhh....confusing. I have abbot 100 more pages and pray for the strength not to just delete it without finishing it! So disappointed!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for stopping by and commenting. I am eager to read Purge, it seems intriguing. I have heard Not so great things about The Kid. And the Kindle edition was priced way too high, and I refused to buy it. Someone was gracious enough to hear me complain and sent me an Amazon gift. Otherwise, I would've passed til it was much cheaper.
ReplyDeleteWOW!! You're going to have to add on a room for your books!
