So many people have loved those two books and the descriptions of both sound like I should love them. When I first picked them up, I couldn't get into them. I'd like to give them a second chance.Nanhttp://nanscorner.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2263295136331930331.post-58896567861113846092009-08-16T10:36:01.348+05:302009-08-16T10:36:01.348+05:30Possession is one for me.
