Crazy For Summer Read-A-Thon (Last Line Challenge)
I've been extremely busy these last few days and I was unable to participate in some of the challenges or post wrap ups but I really wanted to do this challenge so here it is!!
I am going to post up 5 book titles and 5 book endings and what you do is match the book to the ending practically :P Because I thought it would be a bit hard if I just posted the last line :P
