Love the VLOG. AND you read both the Valentine books! I am jealous – I have yet to start them but hope to this week.
Have a super week!
I can't wait to read your thoughts on The Dead Tossed Waves and Before I Fall. I haven't read any of the Adriana Trigiani books but they look good so I will have to check out your reviews.
I have yet to finish an Alexander Dumas novel although I have The Count of Monte Cristo. The Black Tulip is one I haven't heard of before. I hope you enjoy your reading this week.
