Then when we actually do get the book and all revved up to see what's in store, it turns out to be the biggest load of crap!!!Įxcuse my use of the word crap but nothing and I mean nothing can possibly explain my irritation while reading this. Its always sad when we come across a book that we absolutely LOVE and count the months, weeks and days for the sequel. ![]() |
