Spin the Dawn
unced as a crossover between Project Runway and Mulan I was a bit skeptical. Mostly because I had a bit of a hard time combining those two thoughts.

It’s all good though, had a nice long mini-vacation that was really needed. I go back to work tomorrow, and that should be fun. […]

‘ve been waiting forever to read this book. It had libraries, demons, magic and what have you. It seems like it would be the perfect book for me, so I was very excited to start reading it. But, at the same time I was worried that it was going to fall short of my expectations.
