Book: The Sweet Potato Queens' Book of Love

Book: Thirteen Reasons Why, Uglies or City of Bones
Dee wrote: "maybe she'll just hit some snakes later on ;) (not that I would ever wish anything bad for her ;) )"
But that's exactly what I was thinking, Dee. When my kids were young, it never seemed to be the person who started out way in the lead who won the game. Because those snakes are lurking everywhere. Truly a game of luck!

Book: The High Lord
I have it narrowed down to 20 books, I've given myself the rule that unless I land on ebooks or audiobooks then it must be a physical book.

Move to square 3 (chick lit)
Book: Bitter is the New Black : Confessions of a Condescending, Egomaniacal, Self-Centered Smart-Ass, or Why You Should Never Carry a Prada Bag to the Unemployment Office : A Memoir

modified message 10 below, since my name came up on a hold from the library for something I want more.
