Love em and leave em until one dies

The Third Wife by Lisa Jewell

March 4, 2019 by BunchesOfBecky Leave a Comment

The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon by Steven King

February 11, 2019 by BunchesOfBecky 3 Comments

A young female fighting for survival, who must find the inner strength to keep going no matter what, is crack cocaine to me. Kinda reminds me of the first season of The Walking Dead – slow […]
