Read These Please
Hey world 🙂 I am currently sitting in an oddly empty room with a sleeping man at some public library. I wanted to kill time with AC, some wifi, and possibly another new book before I head to the airport for hours and hours. My flight for California departs at 6 am tomorrow and I Continue reading
