Delia's Crossing (The Delia Series)

"Why is it hard to save money?"

"There's so much to buy and so much to do," he said. "Too many temptations. There's even a movie theater that shows films in Spanish. Lucky for me, my father makes me work all the time, but on Sunday, when I go to the mall, I have to keep my hands in my pockets."


~Delia's Crossing; VC Andrews

  43. "...when I go to the mall, I have to keep my hands in my pockets." It's the same thing for me. I like it, one more to my wishlist.

  44. Why does she has to keep her hand in the pocket??

    nice teaser.

  45. I used to love VC Andrews' books, but lost all interest when the ghostwriter her family hired took over. They just didn't have the same depth of feeling and emotion. I hope you enjoyed it!
