Wow, Great reads. It's interesting to see what people are reading, it tells a lot about what their interests are and the direction of their thoughts.
Really.....Man Hunt, huh?!? I may have to take you up on your recommendation on that one. It sounds interesting and I need a really good read. Is it a page turner?? I usually tray to read a book a week but I've been soo busy lately that's it's been getting hard. Seriously, is it really good?
