Kenyazero @ElizaMarie I highly recommend Bingo Love, it's a charming and beautiful story. I haven't yet had the opportunity to read Jook Joint, which sounds like a very heavy read. 4y
ElizaMarie @Kenyazero I just stacked it so I can look into it later (thanks for the recommendation) 4y
Kenyazero @ElizaMarie I hope you enjoy it! 4y
