I still liked it, but Evelina @ AvalinahsBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09564183695294142501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9174167584829577698.post-87544929148740095182017-07-11T16:49:31.285-06:002017-07-11T16:49:31.285-06:00I hope to get them back soon, but who knows with t...I hope to get them back soon, but who knows with the insurance.<br />The Ghost Bride is definitely worth getting if you like magical realism steeped in Chinese culture.<br />Thanks for stopping by and commenting, Annemieke!<br />~Litha NelleLitha Nellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06350209887646891024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9174167584829577698.post-64332759319304757332017-07-11T16:47:37.918-06:002017-07-11T16:47:37.918-06:00Yeah, I still haven't gotten them back, so may...Yeah, I still haven't gotten them back, so maybe my primary care doctor might be able to convince my insurance to give me them? Who knows?<br />Ha! I'm glad you have it. The Ghost Bride is one of the better books I've read this summer.<br />I'm glad you'll have time for personal reading after August.
