should go read this book book called The Housemaid. My
friend Jeremy talked about it. Kim Kuzman, who works here,
talked about it. Is I was like, sure, all read it, dude.
I read the book in three days, and then they
recommended other books. I'm like, you know what, I want
to join a book club, have a book club, and
we can discuss some of the things that are going
on in the book. Right now, I'm reading The Flock,

Kendall app got Kendle on Limited. I can read as
many free books as I want. I got a library Carbitch,
got a library guard, got what a library card. That's awesome,
and I can read books for free there, and I
just want to join or have a book club where

I can get someone else perspective of how they're feeling
about a certain character. So if you want to join
my book club, follow me at Ashley next and we
