The next set of books look great! I will say I'm not sure how this happened but I have had Unbroken on hold at the library for OVER A YEAR! It still says I'm 12 in queue. I just went and checked it and there are a lot of copies and not that many holds. I placed a new hold. :) Anyway, thanks Mary Anne for doing all the work here. It looks fantastic!! I
ReplyDeleteI added in how many pages each book is so you can all plan a bit better when you need to start it.
ReplyDeleteUNBROKEN is such an incredible story. If you have not read this book, READ IT!! You won't be sorry. Well, it is sad at times but, really such an inspiring story. Can't wait to discuss it with you.
ReplyDeletePS I have the cd's if anyone is interested in borrowing them.
ReplyDeleteI would be interested!
