It had finally gotten to…

  • Review from Sweeping Me

    The book was really good. I found myself with so many emotions about these kids and all they had to endure. What a delightful surprise to feel so many tugs at my heart. I loved each of the kids and felt like I could relate to all of them. http://sweepingme.com/2012/01/blog-tour-priest-and-the-peaches-by-larry-peterson-review/
