January Reads (6)

 


Total Books Read:  6

4-STARS

****The Office: The Untold Story of the Greatest Sitcom of the 2000s: An Oral History (Non-Fiction, A. Greene)

Die hard fans of The Office (like myself) will LOVE this book.  Loads of behind the scenes info about the show, the actors, the storylines, the staff, etc.

****Evvie Drake Starts Over (Fiction, L. Holmes)
