message 159: by Lina (new)

Lina | 5563 comments I've tried starting A Bride for Tom by Ruth Ann Nordin three times now and can't get into it. And I've realised (d'oh!) that I'll only just be starting One Day by David Nicholls at the end of the month, so it doesn't suit for this challenge.

I see some changes to my list coming up.
