Nichole  ~~The Grey Lady~~ (wizardsheart) If anyone is looking for a buddy still let me know. I really need to do 5 romances this month, however, I am open to doing some sci-fi or fantasy also if anyone still doesnt have a partner.

Check out my tbr. It doesnt have a lot on it, but its somewhere to start. I also want to read Ever After soon if anyone is interested in that or John Dies at the End
