So whether that influences me to read the book or not, I suppose it could, but moreso it influences me to read their own books! =)Faith Hope and Cherryteahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170392449995588653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116789728291762138.post-49844168707678205642014-01-30T02:53:16.847-06:002014-01-30T02:53:16.847-06:00Sometimes they do a little bit.
