Fun With Resolutions

First, I want to tell you what I’m reading. Some time ago I joined NetGalley, where I can acquire books to read and review, and I’ve received a lot of good stories via that site. (You can, too, and it’s free to join.) I’m currently reading In a Town Called Paradox by Miriam Murcutt and
