Kiss of Death

You can almost rate a book by how many times I lose it. One time, slow start. Two times, pace is still slow. Three times, I'm taking too long to read. Four times, must have picked up some because I'm still reading. Five times... The Kiss of Death or in book language... Thrift Store donation. Sigh, I'm looking for the book I'm reading now... this is the first time I've lost it so there is still hope.
