Favorite Books of Those Who Give
I recently started to work at the American Red Cross collecting blood donations from those generous enough to donate their time to saving lives with their blood. We are currently in a national blood crisis and are very short ln blood! 62% of people can medically give blood, but only about 3% of people do! So in honor of those people who are donating to help others I have been asking everyone who comes in with a book what their favorite book is! Ill keep adding to the list as I get more fav books
