Top Ten Tuesday: Books I Almost Put Down But Didn’t
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday on The Broke and the Bookish is “Top Ten Books I Almost Put Down But Didn’t.” I really need to start working on these sooner so I give myself more time to think about my answers. 1. The Outsiders by S. E. Hinton I think if this hadn’t been so READ MORE
