Since I’ve been out for the count, I’ve been a voracious reader. I mean, I’m probably on the longest reading binge I’ve been on since summers in college! The latest victims were two by Liane Moriarty. The Husband’s Secret was immediately engaging. I mean, just the premise of compromising secret written down to be found… Read More
