Book Review: Get Positively Beautiful by Carmindy

Clearly a Self help book to enable women to love themselves the way they are.
Teaches you to embrace your flaws & how to accent the positive things in your looks & personality!
With alot of "Mantra type"..."I love Myself & I am beautiful in my individuality" ..this book motivates with a helpful splash of Beauty "How Too's" thrown in.
Great book from anyone needing a little Self worth boost...along with helpful guidance in using cosmetics properly!

This is the kind of book~if you found on a coffee table of a trendy Salon or Doctors office:
You would be tempted to steal & take Home.

I give it 4 stars!

BOOK REVIEW: Year of The Cock by Alan Wieder

I finished reading "Year Of The Cock".  THIS  time you can tell a book by the cover!


A Jewish film producer/editor in Hollywood leaves his wife for greener pastures.

Well, after two months of Debauchery(booze, drugs, women) & by the 50th page....the Book(His life story) turns into the more smelly stuff you find in those pastures!
The book is a true story about his downward spiral into OCD/nervous Breakdown & most of all "P.E." (his obsession of his Private part being to small).


If you can get past the vulgarness of it(what many would not)...it really shows how an obsessive worry or thought for someone with metal illness can snowball out of control & destroys your life!

The story is a hardcore view into the life of a very successful producer who seemed to have it all! In truth internally he had nothing!

How did it happen? How did he overcome it? What is he doing now?

Read to find out !

This book would be offensive to many. Other's will either see it as funny or a True in look into mental insanity & a man's fight to overcome it.

In between the lines you get an inside look at the real Truth behind reality TV shows......since this was his main forte' !

I give it 4 stars ! Though I would warn you it is very detailed & includes page after page of him pulling on his you know what & hating himself.
It is a HARDCORE insight into self loathing. Not a book for the faint of heart! His Reality was so much more complex than the shows  he created!

Book review: "Still Missing" By Chevy Stevens

Well, I just finished reading ~ "Still Missing" By: Chevy Stevens!!!!


It was like a mental COLONIC! It was brutal, forceful, uncomfortable, shocking! With wave after wave of trauma & emotion...this book will rip you apart & wipe you out ~yet leave you feeling cleansed. You cannot read this without reflecting on your own... life & awareness of your surroundings! You are forced to think~"OMG! What would I do if..." . A woman is held captive by a Psycho for a year...this is her story told thur her "shrink" visits.

The ending will surprise you like a blow to the face!
 
I Give it 5 stars!
PS: I will never again be able to see a pink ponytail holder without shaking!

Book Review: Sins of the Flesh by Caridad Pineiro

Great Paranormal book! I just finished reading it! A bit PG-13 at the most...did not get racy until around page 200 of 303.
Could have been a little more intimate but the story line was supenseful & amazing. The Gene treatment inculdes part lizard & others. She takes on some of the traits of those genes...aka supernatural powers like going Camo & heat vision. Heart wrenching & exciting.

I give it 4 stars!!!!

Mercenary Mick Carerra knows what kind of man he was.... People come to him when no one else could handle their problems because Mick either solves them or eliminates them. His current assignment - locate Caterina Shaw, the woman suspected of murdering of a scientist at a high tech biomedical facility. But Caterina is not your typical murderer.

Infinite Days Book Review!

Infinite Days by Rebecca Maizel

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


So I am almost done reading the
Advanced Copy Of "Infinite Day's"!
The story line is amazing. A
Very old Vampiress ~has
redemption & is transformed
into a human....a 16 year old
girl at a boarding school in the year 2010.
She was the queen of her coven
& after hibirnating 100 years
~was to return to her coven.
She instead was transfomed
into a Human!
Once this is discoved by her
coven(whom are bound to her by
powerful magic)....are out for
blood...HERS....for forsaking
them for leaving them.

This story also has a mutli
love storyline. It reads as 1st
person....as if your reading
her diary! It's is very good &
a must read.
However, I almost BURNED the
book @ pages 100-105!
Note to Rebecca Maizel~people
love cats & your really grossed
me out! Why not pick a some other
animal ... that people do not
have as pets!!!!
Oh! once or twice she messed up
the storyline dates. The print
could have been darker & the
changing fonts were
distracting.
So overall~A must read Book!
Just if you love cats..tear out
pages 100-105 without reading
them.
Outside of that the story
really is exciting, sometimes
funny & sometimes dark & often
very touching & sweet. I found ~that I love the 1st person narrative a great deal!
It's a story of a sinner
(vampire murderer) finding
redemption, a new life & love.

Another thing I love was all
the parts of her being shocked
& learning all the new
inventions & change of society
since her rebirth! What really touched me is the
fact she was so smart & strong.
Really loved that fact she had
such a high IQ & was such a
empowering young woman!

NO I DON'T FARMVILLE OR OTHER FACEBOOK APPS! I WILL TELL YOU HOW TO WIN SWEEPS!

Seems like these days you can't open your facebook without someone wanting to rope you into doing Farmville, iheart, hugs, poking, aquarium & other facebook virtual apps. I even hear people go on & on about it when I am out & about town in social settings.

PEOPLE PLEASE~I DO NOT NOT DO THOSE FACEBOOK APPS!
WHY? WHY? WHY?
I do not waste my time building virtual worlds & trying to boost my self esteem in this child like games. They are just a silly waste of time~where you do not really get anything tangible out of it!

I would rather read blogs & reviews! I spend my time in a productive manner ~ENTERING SWEEPSTAKES!

I win nice things all the time~that I would not normally have the cash flow to buy.
(Sorry I have not posted my wins here....the one's from the last month or so are posted on my facebook: Zesty Wonderland)!

What I am saying is that I use MY time winning prizes, making wonderful blogger friends, reading review & learning interesting info from someone wonderful, witty girlfriends around the world.
I WILL NOT WASTE MY TIME BUILDING VIRTUAL FARMS & CRAP .....CAUGHT IN A MINDLESS GAME TO PITTER MY TIME AWAY.
I mean ~I can see HOW children would enjoy this ~but adults~really?
I mean REALLY? What are they thinking?
Why not spend your time online getting free samples & winning prizes that have real value & can benefit your life.

So if your into all those virtual apps......I think you should think long & hard about What you are doing with your time & how you could BE doing something more REAL!

Just a Note!

SORRY BUT AFTER ALL THE UP-ROAR & CENSORSHIP GOING ON ON YOUTUBE.......
I HAVE REMOVED ALL VIDEO'S FROM MY BLOG!

Don't want to get in the middle of it all.

I do know that when I see a video & like it.......
I go out & buy their music.

Always felt like sharing video's was increasing the fan base of the singers.
To be on the safe side & to stay out of it...I have removed all video's from my blog.

Next year, I will try to post more personal things & thoughts.
I have won a lot on wonderful prizes from some amazing blogs.
When I get time....I need to/will post & share with you inculding links.
On the other hand, I have come across a few sites that messed up my computer(virus, shut downs, multi rapid fire windows...ect.)
So get ready for me to drop a few names on my NO NO NO list too!

Life has been crazy & there's been little time to write on my own blog.
I will not talk very much about my family because of "stalkers" & "sicko's" online.
I will sometimes share a random pic.

So to all the Fabulous Blogs I Follow~
Thanks Ever So Much for the prizes & the marvelous reviews.
I have laughed, giggled & even cried at times.
Happpy Holidays to You & Yours.........
May Next Year be even more fullfilling & rewarding.
May it bring you Love & Happiness.
God Bless All my Fellow Bloggers & OLS'ters!
