I haven't read this particular book yet, but I do have it sitting on my shelf. I'm saving it for a rainy day because I'm sure it'll cheer me up. After reading this though I think I'm going to have to move it up my TBR pile a little bit.toothybookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05207906107037519355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206029274559460902.post-84193435172886498322010-07-06T06:47:31.527-07:002010-07-06T06:47:31.527-07:00I'm used to my dysfunctional family stories co...I'm used to my dysfunctional family stories coming at me through movies, but this sounds like a great book.
