I haven't read the OUTLANDER series though I've heard quite a bit about it.) My list (summer or winter or all year long) for now includes a Joyce Carol Oates book ~ WONDERLAND and a MG ~ BIRD IN A BOX.Yanting Guehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04788603550626277974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6425699691615371137.post-10883317249251517102015-06-09T12:55:16.273-04:002015-06-09T12:55:16.273-04:00Dear Becky,

I endorse Mere Christianity wholeheartedly. So many years later, C.S.
