La Mala *the mean girl*
La Mala *the mean girl* rated it 11 years ago
Una historia de amor tan simple como bizarra . No se me ocurre que mas decir por el momento . No me gusta poner pics de actores que hagan las interpretaciones de los libros al cine (me da hasta fastidio a veces ver eso en otras reseñas , es decir , el libro es una cosa , la peli va por otro camino ,...

There are a few reasons why I listened to this book. 1) It’s called ‘Labor Day’ and I listened to it on the Labor Day. This one is actually more of a coincidence than an actual reason but let’s put it there anyway.2) It takes place in New Hampshire in early September, which is when I arrived in New ...
