I've tried this three times now and I always fall behind on my reviews. My husband has heard me bemoan this for three years now and has decided to try it himself and the JERK is already AHEAD of me on reviews. Game on.

But at her hospital bed, Alex is offered a second chance: to attend one of the world’s most […]

It’s set about a year after the end of Dealing with Dragons. {SPOILERS FOR DEALING WITH DRAGONS AHEAD} . . . . . . . This book is narrated by Mendenbar, […]
