Book Review

 

This was a great book that had me on the edge of my seat.  Many times I was in complete shock as to what was happening.  It is not often that a book will be able to surprise me many times throughout.  This one managed to.

It was extremely well written and I absolutely could not put it down.  The story was so fast paced and full of action.  The characters were well developed.

There are so many things I would love to say about this book.  However, I had vowed to myself when I started reviewing that I would never give spoilers.  And this is one of those books that has so many twists and turns that sharing something would almost always be a spoiler.

The book cover has a quote from Andrew Gross stating “A fast paced, all too real thriller with a villain right out of James Patterson and Criminal Minds.”  I couldn’t agree more. 

This is one of those books that when it ends you are sad because you don’t want to stop reading it.  I will definitely be keeping a watch on this author. 

You don’t want to miss this book!!

Arnicare–Review & Giveaway

Image
  Product Review   Because of various health issues, I am always on the lookout for over the counter pain relief.  I HATE take pills.  So I tend to look for something topical.  I don’t want to be like my mom and smell horribly of some of the other formulas that are on the market. So that limits me greatly on what I can use.  I was just recently sent a 2.6 ounce tube of Arnicare.  It is all natural pain relief that comes in a gel.  They also have creams and pills as well. First off, I liked that it has a very pleasant mild scent.  So its definitely something that I am not embarrassed putting on and going out somewhere. Plus, it helped stop the pain rather quickly.  I was completely blown away with how fast my legs stopped hurting.  It’s a very rare day that I go without pain.  It was so nice to be able to find something that actually takes the pain away.  And not only did it take the pain away, it also relieve...

Review–Mana Potion

Image
Product Description   Mana Energy Potion Each tiny shot is loaded with 160mg of caffeine and tons of other energy boosters. As much caffeine as two cans of Red Bull® Provides 5-8 hours of smooth energy. No sugar, so no aftercrash. Each six pack contains 6 (duh) 1.69oz bottles   Product Review   The bottles are really cute and I love the labels.  I was a little disappointed though that the Mana Energy Drink logo was printed on the plastic wrapper instead of the bottle.  However, I love the shapes of the bottles. So here I was in the middle of a raid that seemed to be lasting longer then it should have.  We had already wiped a few times and decided to try again.  I was running out of energy though.  So instead of yelling OOM in the raid chat, I decided to take a Mana Potion.  There is no sugar whatsoever in this drink.  It contains tons of vitamins to help get you going.  And of course the all s...
