  1. Hi!

    I have the same problem, a long list of books I'm willing to buy.

    I'm really interested on a review on 'Zorba the Greek'. That book always made me curious, and I'm thinking about getting it.

    You have a really interesting blog, the kind I'm trying to build. Feel free to check mine out :)
