First of all…love your flashing graphics! I'm impressed! Glad you had a great reading month! The Shore was a good one for me as well in May….and I read Boo in May, but it didn't really do it for me. Looking forward to reading Girl at War before the year is out.

I loved parts of Boo but there were parts that didn't work for me as well. I have mixed feelings! I think we *might* chat about it on The Socratic Salon. That always helps me work through my thoughts.
