In this weekly reading vlog, I celebrate Valentine's Day while reading a romance book I read as a kid. Ummmm... it was kind of what I remembered but also completely not what I thought! Also, to save the day I read the last book from the Edge Novels by Ilona Andrews because Ilona Andrews never lets me down :)
