Reviews for The Birthday Girl

[marlene9nl · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This book is not mine but my father's but he told me I should read this. We do not have similar taste in books, unlike my mom and me, but I thought let's try.
At first I was worried it would all be about war, or business but then I really started to get into it and yes dad, I liked it. I told him yesterday and he was very pleased. ;) I'd promise to give this book 100 pages but in the end i read it all and did enjoy it.
