Kristina, that brings you to 19, right? Great!

BTW, I just started and I'm enjoying it. I saw people say how she died was funny, but I didn't think so. . . until. . . (view spoiler)[the next chapter, where it was revealed it was a school bus full of band geeks. Now why did that make a difference to me? Maybe b/c I was in drill team in HS? **hee hee** Hey, did you know you could put a spoiler within a spoiler -->(view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)]. Well you can! (hide spoiler)]

[Kristina]

LOL Lisa Kay I'm so glad you're reading that! I try to tell people that it's funny and not quite what you'd think but they're like yeah okay.. I totally agree with the spoiler, and the way she laments about it is hilarious to me.

Yes, 19! I think all the rest of my animals are just missing I's and O's, I didn't realize how hard those would be!

[Lisa Kay]

You're right, Kristina. Luckily I’m reading the In Death series, so I’m using those for an “I” every now and then. It is very well narrated, if you’re into audio, futuristic NY female cop and J.D. Robb.

P.S. I loved . Maybe I'll have to listen to the audiobook

[Lisa Kay]

Oh, I hope you enjoy it if you do, Rebecca. I understand the audiobook is available at most public libraries. You might want to see if you can download OverDrive Media to your computer, if that is what your library uses, then listen to your heart's content without worrying about late fees. It just automatically returns to them when due.
