It changed, I changed, it became less angry and more introspective, I became a tad lazy, I watched a lot of TV and ran a lot of miles late at night with wolves nipping at my heels. It ended up as a book.

Fifty Shades of IKEA
ISBN: 9781935139225 / Angielski / Miękka / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A lot of people love IKEA.
