Just noticed you picked me for #2 Birthday.
Unfortunately the rule this year is:
"Read a book from a April birthday celebrant's GR bookshelf whose name/nickname starts with the same letter as yours."
Looks like Regina is the only April birthday member that starts with an "R". I'm sure you'll find something on her shelf that you'll like
