2013 Challenge #1
Didn't like the hunt as much as I thought i would. Was going to read a few more-but decided to chose something else. (maybe not in the mood--?!) perhaps I will pick it up in a few months.A good chick lit show I've been watching has been the Mindy Project-- have you seen it? I am really enjoying it.
