Looking good, ladies. I finally started reading my "HH" book. I need to power through it, though. There is some good things about it, but I found a little consistency issues and, being OCD, it makes it hard for me to get back to it. LOL!
I actually never went back to that one, ShoSho. However, I've discovered I already read by "HH" book while at a hotel over the summer. I just need to 'tag' it. Gosh...and remember how to rate it. LOL! (Must have been a 3 star...)
