Blade by Wendy Walker
I was today years old when I realized that I could put a meme of a cat ice skating on a human’s body as my featured image. I’ve been CBR’ing since like CBR 6 and I’ve always been a good girl and put the book cover out front. Not today though, because I’m a rebel!

The Night Before by Wendy Walker
