Wow Helen, you had a busy month. I see you read Blue Notebook. I LOVED that story; very powerful.
You had a great month!! You should be able to have a great month in July!
Diane--I did have a good month; I really liked al the books I read! And the Blue Notebook was so powerful and good.
Aths--I hope July is good as well since I am (mostly) not working. Somehow each day gets filled though.
Sounds like you had a good reading month! I'm still a little hesitant to read Rules of Attraction, everyone says its was better than Perfect Chemistry!
Marie--Rules of Attraction better than Perfect Chemistry? Hmmmm...they are similar, but also different (I know, that sounds so dumb). I liked them both equally
