Published : 2021 || Format : print || Location : Colombia ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ What was it about the country that kept everyone hostage to its fantasy? The previous month, on its own soil, an American man went to his job at a plant and gunned down fourteen coworkers, and last spring alone there were four different school shootings.

One Vacant Chair by Joe Coomer: I started reading this one yesterday, but didn't get that far in. It's quite funny at times, plus engrossing.
Crazy by Han Nolan: Again, I will read this only if I get the time. I'm not sure yet about it, plus this ebook expires in a few days.
