Most of today I slept, read and played online. <br />I finished The Immoral Life of Bezellia Grove, and started Left Neglected by Lisa Genova in print, and on audio I started Weird Sisters by Eleanor Brown.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11129662082248482002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-65840300061144004262011-04-17T19:08:40.606-04:002011-04-17T19:08:40.606-04:00The UCF Book Festival sounds wonderful!
