Favorite Food: Does coffee and Biscotti count?
First Romance Novel Read
Favorite Romance Genre: Paranormal or chic lit.
Finished the line: I know I'm a book addict because I can't say no to review books or buying a book that catch my eye. I have my books double stacked even triple stacked on my shelves because I've run out of room. I've only read 10% of my collection and keep adding new books daily physical and ebooks. Plus I never leave the house without a physical book and at least one kindle (I have a keyboard and the new hd fire).
