Hey Diane. I think you got the same email I did. 9 Kindle books for free that are all world worthy. I only picked up two of them, but I think I should look again. Happy reading.

Since they are free I always buy all of them. I still haven't read the ones from last year so I added those also. I am hoping this group will help me get them read.

I will be glad to know what you think. I loved the movie better than the book. When you finish I can ask you some questions.
