ReplyDeleteAngie! I love your blog! I haven't seen it yet. =) I'm interested to see what you thought of Breaking Dawn. Hope everything's going well on the home front with your little one!
ReplyDeleteCamie, I didn't know you had a blog either. It's delightful! Mind if I link to it? As for Breaking Dawn, I've been dragging my feet on my review. Mostly because I agree with yours...
