July Book Loot

Posted by on 5 Comments
OMG, Bonnie is posting a video the same day she recorded it? The world must have ended!!! Maybe this is a sign that I can keep this speed up in the future… Then again… *guilty eyes* I’ll have a second July post…um, hopefully within the next week. This time with purchased copies or gifts (since I received a few books for my birthday last month…) Maybe I should try something more traditional like IMM. The vlogs would definitely be shorter…but I have trouble getting up what I have now, so idk…
