I'm a complete and utter Katie McGarry fangirl and I have absolutely not logical explanation for why this book is not yet in my hands. I must remedy this immediately! I want a quick 67 pages that will put a big ol' grin on my face:) And just the thought of Aires and how much Lila loved him makes my heart hurt. *sobs* So good.<br /><br />Much love,<br /><br />JennyJennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-66677911397399362012013-08-12T14:58:14.391+01:002013-08-12T14:58:14.391+01:00I enjoyed this one and it was so sweet about falli...I enjoyed this one and it was so sweet about falling in love through lettersbrandileigh2003https://www.blogger.com/profile/01669251993917961293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-75785956497560336502013-08-12T14:29:09.092+01:002013-08-12T14:29:09.092+01:00I really like these books but I haven't picked...I really like these books but I haven't picked up this novella yet.

I love the idea of this novella and I like that you don't have to make a spin-off of another character, but rather a short story and it doesn't have to be 400 pages long to pull you in and make you care. I think this sounds perfect and I can't believe I haven't read it yet. Katie McGarry is the queen of all things swoon-ish :) hehe.Siirihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18265532869057616598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-4470118160881226532013-08-12T06:16:57.851+01:002013-08-12T06:16:57.851+01:00Katie is such an amazing writer.
