Review & Giveaway–SnorgTees

Image
    Product Review   I recently received a great t-shirt from SnorgTees .  The first thing I did when I received it was to wash it.  This is an old throw back to the one Christmas that I worked retail for a month.  I learned by watching the people who worked with me that you should always wash clothes you buy.  After the first wash, the t-shirt was still fresh and new looking.  There wasn’t any bleeding of colors and no fading whatsoever.  Also and more importantly, the t-shirt didn’t shrink. Wearing the shirt was great.  The fabric was light and breathable.  This is very important in the South Florida heat.  You don’t want to wear something that will make you feel uncomfortable.  And I received many compliments on the shirt.  I had a bunch of guys who were all revved up that I was wearing a Storm Trooper shirt that looked cool.  And some girls just thought it was pretty cool looking without understanding that it was a Star Wars reference.  A few of my friends are threa

Review–Lethal Lineage

Image
Book Description   A sinister Episcopal Bishop shows up to confirm Lottie and Josie Albright's niece at the new frame church built on the corners of four Western Kansas counties. The twins are already agitated over his scathing sermon when the Reverend Mary Farnsworth flees to the anti room after dropping the chalice during communion. Josie, a psychologist, lingers after the service to comfort her, but Lottie immediately orders her sister to leave when they discover Reverend Mary's body. Alone with Talesbury, Lottie is frightened by the Bishop's cold strange rituals for disposing of the spilled wine, but as Deputy Sheriff, she's duty bound to attend to the death. Back at the county wide picnic, an elderly lady informs Lottie that a man kneeling next to her scared Reverend Mary into a heart attack. Worried that this was not a natural death, Lottie calls in other law enforcement agencies. She soon learns that the beloved Reverend Mary was a woman without a past

Review–An American Vampire

Image
Book Description   He's the good kind of vampire...sort of. Buried in the Heartland is a town that no one enters or leaves. Graf McDonald somehow becomes its first visitor in more than five years…and he was only looking for a good party. Unfortunately, Penance, Ohio, is not that place. And after having been isolated for so long, they do not like strangers at all. Jessa’s the only one to even remotely trust him, and she’s desperate for the kind of protection that only a vampire like Graf can provide. Supplies are low, the locals are ornery for a sacrifice and there’s a monster more powerful than Graf lurking in the woods. New men are hard to come by in this lonesome town, and this handsome stranger might be Jessa’s only hope for salvation. Even if she has to die first… Book Review   This was definitely a great book.  It was a dark, eerie tale that was interlaced with a dark humor.  Think of it as Janet Evanovich meets Twilight Zone.  I absolutely loved it.  Fir

Review–Midnight With The Mystic

Image
  Book Description   Constructed around a series of late night conversations around a camp fire between Cheryl Simone and Sadhguru Vasudev on an Island in the middle of a Western North Carolina lake near her mountain home, Midnights with the Mystic is the most thorough exposition of the teachings of India's most sought after mystic. Sadhguru challenges us to embrace the possibility that to each of us is available a higher realm of reality, a peak of consciousness; an entrance into the realm of freedom and bliss. Concrete and down-to-earth, Midnights with the Mystic both provides readers with an introduction to profound spiritual teaching and a personal glimpse of a charismatic guru.   Book Review   Having been lost and searching for a long time myself, it was very easy to relate to Cheryl’s struggle to find inner peace.  I too had gone from one teacher to another in hopes of finding what was missing within me. Cheryl found the path that was right for her.

  Book Description   Kisses, even the ones that don’t happen, can be the trace of what’s constant when life changes. In childhood, when what seems to define everything is competition for style, for knowing, for experience a kiss is the first first. When a girl’s father moves out and chooses a new family, a kiss on the head from him may be the trace of constancy that she wants most. Later, such things take on a different flavor. Sometimes the kiss she wants doesn’t come. Sometimes the one she wouldn’t have is forced upon her. From time to time, the one she has kissed before is lost to her. Some kisses are final. When things are most hectic a kiss can be a celebration. And when circumstances grow threatening to a woman, her family, her sister a kiss becomes the reassertion of the most vital connections. The rich story in these essays rings with good humor and with moving wistfulness. Throughout, Sternbach maintains a perfect balance between them as her story moves from the bitter
