Birthday Books
May 26, 2011
I was lucky to get a great number of books given to me for my birthday. Well, I got the huge Amazon gift card, and did all the choosing myself.
The first book, Rape: A Love Story by Joyce Carol Oates, arrived yesterday, Since I used about ten different sellers via Amazon, this gift-receiving thing will likely stretch on for another week, maybe longer.
