Eldercare is no joke!!!!!
Eldercare is no joke!!!!!

I hope you opportunities to read the books on your lists.
I loved WHSTW ... as a child and as an adult.
The books on the list are what I have read over the course of my life ... if there is no book listed for a country it is because I have yet to read an author from there or having the story set there.
Was this supposed to be a WHAT I WANT TO READ list??
