June 29, 2013

Book cover of 7 CLUES TO WINNING YOU by Kristin WalkerDon’t be fooled by the cover. Looking at it made me think the book was gonna be some sad and sappy teenage romance but it’s not. Yes, there is romance but it’s not sappy or annoying. On the whole, I thought it was rather humorous and I appreciated the wit.
