BIG LITTLE ...I love how you do best and worst. :) <br /><br />BIG LITTLE LIES is at the top of my list right now. I had it from the library, but only got a few chapters in before I had to return it because someone requested it. And BONE GAP is on my list because of you and other book clubbers.

I feel like I might have asked you this question before. I tell everyone to read past the first 50 pages because they are slow and boring as heck....after that it slowly picks up the pace until you can't put it down! <br /><br />Also I am definitley adding Bone Gap and the Ruby Oliver series to my TBR list for next year ;) They sound good!
