Tuesday Tales - ROUGH

May I quickly add to this post: 
I'd like to send my condolences to the family of Christopher Lane, a Melbourne baseball player. Christopher was killed yesterday during a drive-by shooting in Oklahoma, USA. I can only imagine what a big loss it is for the tight-knit baseball community here in Australia. RIP.

This Week's Book Choice - J.F. Jenkins "Displaced"

 
Displacedby J.F. Jenkins  Blurb: Chevelle Donahue thought going into work would be just like any other boring day at the mall.
