But that's one of the books that I can't get into no matter how many times I try. And I've tried several times. So I always feel like I'm missing out on something. I can't think of anyone off the top of my head becaus…

Release Techniques » My first "live return"
Tavie 20 yrs ago | 7 replies
I don't know what the proper terminology is for it, but I had someone try and "return" my "lost" book to me for the first time the other day. It was pretty nerve-wracking. I was riding on the Roosevelt Island Tram in …
