apolonia - June 4, 2007 01:38 AM (GMT)
I didn't really read much this week, so I didn't want to pick another tbr to add to the pile. I have decided not to read Cat's Eye by Margaret Atwood which is one of MsJoanna's choices, so Msjoanna you win again! Another winner will be chosen as soon as I finish at least one of the books I owe. I like to keep the owed tbr pile really small.

I know Vamps and the City, and Real Vampires have curves are on someone else's shelf, I think Master of Wolves might be too. |
