First Impressions
“No two persons ever read the same book” – Edmund Wilson
Every story leaves its unique imprint on the hearts and minds of its readers. That imprint may come from its title, cover art, unique plot, unforgettable characters, or familiarity with the author’s previous work. The story may change your life, emotionally trigger you, or make you regret the hours you spent reading it – hours you’ll never get back!
This month’s book selection is no different. What unique imprint (or impression) has this book made on Kayla and Monica (the 2Sistas)? Let’s find out…
