Tiger’s Voyage (The Tiger Saga #3)

2016-05-02T14:48:35-06:00April 27th, 2016|Tags: , , , , |0 Comments

Book Description: With the head-to-head battle against the villainous Lokesh behind her, Kelsey confronts a new heartbreak: in the wake of his traumatic experience, her beloved Ren no longer remembers who she is. As the trio continues their quest by challenging five cunning and duplicitous dragons, Ren and Kishan once more vie for her affections--leaving Kelsey more confused than ever. I just finished the third book the The Tiger Saga series by Colleen Houck. I am mostly enjoying this series so far. I am getting a little annoyed with the poor pitiful me mood that Kelsey sometimes gets into. I get it maybe in the first book because these adventures are new to her and what she is having to do is hard, but she is on the third quest by now. It seems to be that there is like an outline for each quest in each book. She has to do something and gets super scared and whiney about it and then she somehow gets hurt in some way or another and almost dies. Now don't get me wrong this doesn't make me not like the series I just wish [...]

Figment (Insanity #2)

2016-05-02T14:47:38-06:00April 21st, 2016|Tags: , , , , , , |0 Comments

This is the second book in the Insanity series by Cameron Jace. It is about a mad Wonderland. I stumbled across this one day and thought hey this series sounds like a fun different read. I have so far really enjoyed it! Description: After her encounter with the Cheshire Cat, Alice Wonder can hardly tell reality from imagination. But when kids have their head chopped off and stuffed in watermelons all over the city, it's clear that another Wonderland Monster has arrived, possibly scarier than the Cheshire. Alice, along with Professor Pillar, have to solve the killer's puzzles before a horrible event threatens the death of millions. Then Jack Diamonds appears again. This time, Alice must know who he really is. The first book in this series was great it kept me hanging on and wanting to know what was going to happen and see if she was truly the real Alice. Book 2 did not disappoint. It left off right after the first one and once again you are immersed in this crazy reality of are Wonderland Monsters taking over the real world and is Alice really the real Alice [...]

Passenger (Passenger #1)

2016-05-02T14:45:36-06:00April 19th, 2016|Tags: , , , , , |0 Comments

I was walking through Costco a while ago and was looking in the book section for a book for my friend for her birthday. I happened to see the cover of this book and I was like hey this is a cool cover, then I read about it and was like that sounds interesting and it is going to be a series not just one book (my friend really likes series books, as do I). Well we ended up not getting a chance to meet up after I bought it and I had about a month until we had a chance to meet up again (she lives in a different state) so I thought hey we share books she won't mind if I read this one, so I did. Man am I glad I did! I loved it! Here is the description before I get too far into my review: In one devastating night, violin prodigy Etta Spencer loses everything she knows and loves. Thrust into an unfamiliar world by a stranger with a dangerous agenda, Etta is certain of only one thing: she has traveled not just miles but years [...]

Odd Hours (Odd Thomas #4)

2016-04-19T02:25:34-06:00April 19th, 2016|Tags: , , , , , |0 Comments

I have been slowly working my way though the Odd Thomas series, I was actually lent the first 4 by my sister-in-law. They are good books to read in between those really long ones because they are a quick read. For some reason when it takes me a long time to read a book I get really antsy and so I need a good quick one I can read in a week just to like reassure myself I can still read a book fast. This is the 4th book in the Dean Koontz series. Odd Hours by Dean Koontz Description of the book: After grappling with the very essence of reality itself, after finding the veil separating him from his soul mate, Stormy Llewellyn, tantalizingly thin yet impenetrable, Odd longed only to return to a life of quiet anonymity with his two otherworldly sidekicks—his dog Boo and a new companion, one of the few who might rival his old pal Elvis. But a true hero, however humble, must persevere. Haunted by dreams of an all-encompassing red tide, Odd is pulled inexorably to the sea, to a small California coastal [...]

Shadowhunters Season 1

2016-04-18T20:45:17-06:00April 18th, 2016|Tags: , , , |0 Comments

I just finished watching the first season of Shadowhunters yesterday. I was really excited when I heard the series was coming out and I wasn't disappointed. Were there some things I didn't like yes, but overall I really enjoyed it and am very excited it got renewed for the second season. First let me say I saw the movie and I really did not like it. I thought the person they picked for Jace was just definitely not my idea of Jace. This Jace, Dominic Sherwood from Vampire Academy, in the TV series is way better! He is attractive and looks the part, like to me more manly than the other Jace. Clary, Katherine McNamara, was my least favorite in the beginning, she looked the part but her acting just wasn't as great as the rest. Towards the end of the series I thought she did better. Alec, Matthew Daddario, was a great character I think he played the part well, and again attractive. Can I just say in that scene where he is trying to use the parabati bond to find Jace he has the most even chest hair I [...]

So I dreamed I married Chandler Bing….

2016-04-18T15:43:53-06:00April 18th, 2016|Tags: , , , |0 Comments

Alright so last night I dreamed I married Chandler from friends....yeah that was an interesting dream. First is it just weird to have dreams where you are marrying another guy or even other dating dreams when you are in fact married. Now we are about to have a Friends theme quiz for Geeks Who Drink so I have been in Friends study mode so that might be why it was subconsciously in my brain. It was kind of hard to tell if I was me or Monica. I am pretty sure I was me, but was I me as Monica. The dream started with me not knowing what was happening besides I was getting ready for something. We went to have our hair done and they first asked if I wanted my nails painted I was like sure why not, and they turned out absolutely horrible I mean it looked like a 3 year old painted them. Then we had makeup done and then it switched to we were at a house and we realized that my hair had not been done. Now how in the heck we missed that and [...]

Da Vinci’s Tiger

2016-04-19T02:25:00-06:00April 18th, 2016|Tags: , |0 Comments

Da Vinci's Tiger by L. M. Elliott I am a subscriber to OwlCrate, a book box, and for the December box I received this book. The theme was Get Inspired. I thought the cover of this book was very pretty. Here is the description of the book: The young and beautiful daughter of a wealthy family, Ginevra longs to share her poetry and participate in the artistic ferment of Renaissance Florence but is trapped in an arranged marriage in a society dictated by men. The arrival of the charismatic Venetian ambassador, Bernardo Bembo, introduces Ginevra to a dazzling circle of patrons, artists, and philosophers. Bembo chooses Ginevra as his Platonic muse and commissions a portrait of her by a young Leonardo da Vinci. Posing for the brilliant painter inspires an intimate connection between them, one Ginevra only begins to understand. In a rich and vivid world of exquisite art with a dangerous underbelly of deadly political feuds, Ginevra faces many challenges to discover her voice and artistic companionship—and to find love This book is a historical fiction book and used a real painting for inspiration. I thought it was [...]

Introducing Me

2016-12-06T21:28:41-07:00April 17th, 2016|5 Comments

Greetings! I have attempted to start multiple blogs for awhile now and have decided that I will somewhat combine my blog ideas. First, I have a huge love of books. I read them every chance I get, usually two at once, one at home and one at work. I love seeing others book blogs and the different things people do and will be doing book reviews and other random book topics. I would like to do some of those book challenges I see on Instagram like posting certain pictures for a month, but I do fall behind. Second, I love crafting, although my husband would say I love buying crafting stuff. I don't do it as much as I want because I just don't have time. I would love to make stuff and sell it eventually, and am slowly working on that. I do however make stuff for us and for my family and friends. So I will be posting about that as well. Third, will just be about random things. They could be serious, could be silly, could be just totally who knows what. I just want a place that [...]
