I loved your Leaning Tower of Pisa description! <br />I've always been what I guess I would call an "impatient" reader. If the book doesn't grab me within the first couple of pages....that's it. It's hard for me to fathom people reading an entire book they didn't like, just because they couldn't possibly NOT read it, once they started! I'm with you. Life is too short to waste time with things that aren't necessary! Thanks for a great post.BECKYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15184458949017900541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2252285009517721143.post-14275008158322365352014-06-02T21:39:03.490-04:002014-06-02T21:39:03.490-04:00Hi Diane -

I always feel bad that I didn't like it.Diane Estrellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04005496427078588740noreply@blogger.com
