Am I the only one who goes back and forth in-between books? Currently, I’m between “A Stranger with my Face,” by Lois Duncan, and “The Woman in Cabin Ten” by Ruth Ware. What are you currently reading? Do you go back and forth?     #whatareyoureading? #amreading #books #yabooks #adultbooks

Now, not only do people not die, but they can regenerate, too. Once you turn 100, for example, ifContinue reading “Scythe Book Review – “Thou Shalt Kill””
