Life really is too short and my must-read list too long to do that anymore. Having read your review, I won’t be adding this one to that list. Lovely to see you back to regular blogging Tracy, I missed you while you were away.

Too bad that you found this to be disappointing. <br /><br />I have also stuck with books for way too many pages.

As you will see from my upcoming review, it was the first bookclub selection we've read that I honestly didn't like at all. <br /><br />Hoping our next selection will be more to our liking!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00859017153454691633noreply@blogger.com
