You know, I was looking at the pile of Summer books that I've read. Some of them really are pretty. In fact, so pretty that I think that's why I picked them out from all the plain covered classics. Just this morning I remember how many of them I had to stop reading because they had inappropriate content. It's true... You can't judge a book by it's cover.. nor a pear by its skin. Blessings...
