Dodo Wonders – ebook
E.F. Benson
The book is interesting because it has a much darker and more thoughtful implication than it might seem.

Most of the novel is built on dialogues, through which we learn about the feelings that the characters are going through. The plot of the novel is dynamic, readers can read it in one breath.Data dostępności:
