Me Before You

August 19, 2016 molliemcnLeave a comment

OMG. This book. I’m not usually one for romantic, girly novels. I usually prefer something more non-fiction, a murder mystery or something post-apocalyptic.

Stiff is my first read by this author and I think… Continue reading Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers
