I hope you enjoy I Hope This Finds You Well as much as I did!

to find that one was available; no waiting. It is quite funny. And sweet.

Duchess Day Radley is a thirteen-year-old self-proclaimed outlaw. Rules are for other people.

I’ve got his All Colors of the Dark on my TBR shelf, too many books, too little time.

As recommended here.
