But I have no idea what to expect from a story like this. From this review, it sounds like I shouldn't be holding my breath too hard. But on the other hand, maybe the story relies on context and familiarity, and then (possibly) I might enjoy it more than you did.Standbackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10877817311001333712noreply@blogger.com
