                                          In This Very Special Episode we are doing more live reads. But this time we have all chosen excerpts from some of our favorite books of the year and we are giving them to each other to read...... blindly. So we don't know what the others have chosen and we haven't read them in advance -- unless we just so happened to have read the book before.
