The Golden Mean: In Which the Extraordinary Correspondence of Griffin and Sabine Concludes
Review Date: 6/28/2025


A completely different, refreshing sort of book from a series. If you enjoy " peeking" into the lives of others this is the book for you
Follow the correspondence through letters written to each other ( in which you open the envelope) and postcards.
