WILD RELEASE NOTES:
Released:
One block up from HMC, 319 Terry Ave, LFL charter #43112
I wasn't aware that this was the 10th (I think) book in a series, so diligently began by checking out book #1. Sorry to say that I could not move on beyond the passage "...brandishing his knife and fork like an Oriental assassin". Life's too short to read modern books relying on racist tropes (the book was published in 2009, not 1909, and no amount of masquerading in period YA will fly).
So off it goes!
