I wish they had a second season, but anyway, maybe I will check this out just for the JC connection. :) Thanks for the great review, Leanna!Christina / Book Addicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06661826027260861430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5689237444917451564.post-9438007150871850352011-06-15T21:53:11.800+01:002011-06-15T21:53:11.800+01:00Jared Leto, is that his name?
