Ok, I've taken it easy on you all for long enough. What. Are. You. Reading?!! nm

Posted by ralph wiggum (aka Wiggum17) Mar 9 '15, 19:20

I just finished Red Queen which is being touted as one of those "Next Hunger Games." It's got a lot of elements we've seen before, but I ended up really enjoying it.
