Elizabeth Thorlton | 24 comments 1) Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs by Caitlin Doughty
2) Reading a book for work that has snow in it (upcoming thriller by Ray Anderson, The Divide). My kids’ homeschool this week is snow, so we’ve read lots of snow books (and lots of blue, but that doesn't count towards the challenge)!
