What Members Thought

First, I have to say that I laughed when I went to write my review and Goodreads prompted me with "What did you think?"
Such an innocent, simple question. But I could not simply answer. Believe me, you do not want to know what I first thought. I don't think you would appreciate all my Spanish cussing and jumbled thoughts.
