Hands up if you want to partake in a bookish conventionnnnnn
Bribed Charlie with beer to make his Tube debut!!! The roommate shares what he'll be reading for the next couple weeks, I pretend to know how to give book synopses, and our cat indulges in some greek yogurt while his parents entertain themselves by talking to a camera.
Hope you enjoy this one bbs
