Have to check my reviews. I listened to Tallgrass and enjoyed it, but didn't care for The Boy in Striped Pajamas. <br /><br />I haven't been to a library book sale in years. I don't dare, as I still have books I bought at the Fort Worth Library sale back in 2000! Still haven't read 'em! ;)Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-57116804856878306692012-08-06T22:57:52.000-04:002012-08-06T22:57:52.000-04:00Carol - I know I will... just need to decide where...Carol - I know I will... just need to decide where to start!JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13691864361197071517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-58022118678896907802012-08-06T22:57:07.392-04:002012-08-06T22:57:07.392-04:00Booksnyc -The Postmistress comes up over and over ...Booksnyc -The Postmistress comes up over and over again as a book club selection.
