    Review: A Pho Love Story by Loan Le

    Review: The Memory Police by Yoko Ogawa

    ~My Thoughts~ This is without a doubt one of the weirdest books I have ever read and I’ve been having such a hard time deciding how I feel about it. I’d seen it around on a few different book-lists and was really intrigued by it. It isn’t very long, less than 300 pages if I…
