GRWM/G-UN-RWM & Breakfast With Santa 2018

Hello Everyone!

Was hoping to get this posted ON New Year's EVE, but it did not go according to plan, so the year is starting great. It is not "Christmas" Season anymore but did not feel like NOT posting it, so we are going to enjoy ONE MORE DAY of Christmas.

We all know it has been a while since posting the last video. Not a great juggler, but hoping to make this year better. With at least a NEW VIDEO EVERY MONTH. Going to REALLY try and get a video up every month for you and be active. Not sure how well that will go since going to college will take up the time, but willing to give it my best! Hope you enjoy the video!

What's In The Box? |Crowdtap March 2018

Hey Everyone!

       Long time no typing, so how have you been? Me?!? Thanks for asking, I'm doing great, been busy with school and homework. Have little time for anything else, but still try to get these videos edited and up for everyone but does not always go according to plan.


       Finally posted a new video! If you have been with me for awhile then you know my video scheduling is not the best, but it's okay because late posting is my THANG. Crowdtap was kind enough to send me some free makeup samples to test out, but my opinions are my OWN. Revlon PhotoReady Collection (some) and two(2) of the products I LOVE! you will have to find out which ones when you watch the video.

       Hope you enjoy the video! Thank-you for stopping by and don't forget to Subscribe, Like or Dislike for more late videos! 😉😉

Witch hunt in Salem AGAIN?!?!?

Hey Everyone!

        It's been awhile since we've spoken, but I brought you another book review. Yaaaay!

"The Fifth Petal" by Brunonia Barry, 3.5 stars out of 5 stars. On Goodreads I can't give .5's so I have it rated at 3, but the overall Goodreads rates the book at 3.68. Which isn't bad. Never had heard of Brunonia Barry, the first book of hers I've read and it wasn't bad.
Cover Paperback Published September 26, 2017
       It was 1989 on Halloween when a horrific scene had happened. It seemed like a ritual gone wrong. A little girl, Callie Cahill, hidden in the bushes was found by Nuns, crying and gripping something tightly. Three young women, "The Goddess", were slashed to death. Townspeople believed Rose Whelan, a local historian, is guilty of murder or witchcraft. Now 2014, Cheif Rafferty and Callie, daughter of one of The Goddess, believe she didn't do it. They try to find the truth of what happened on Halloween in 1989. Is there truly witches in Salem or someone taking vengeance of the girls?

Page 269

       Let's talk about the characters I like, which are John Rafferty, Callie Cahill, and Rose Whalen. Yes, they're the main characters, but there are others which weren't that interesting to me. Rafferty, Cheif of Police, someone you can trust, he tries his hardest to stay civil when it comes to his job. He wants to make sure everyone gets a fair judgment, but when he believes someone is innocent, he'll try his hardest to prove it. He wanted to solve the cold case of "The Goddess", noticed no one really wanted to solve it, so he went at it alone. Callie, daughter of Oliva one of The Goddess, a woman who lost her family and those closest to her as a young child, but when she finds out her "Auntie" Rose is still alive and struggling she came into town to find her. When she did, it was worse than she thought. Rose, stamped as the banshee, is accused by the town of murder or possibly witchcraft, ever since 1989, she hasn't been the same, became mentally unstable and became the crazy lady of the town. Rafferty and Callie are trying they're most damn to find the answers to all the questions. The Goddess, Callie, and Rose are all related to the five who were executed during the witch trial of 1692. I don't  know what exactly makes me like these characters, but they were so interesting to me. It may be because Rafferty tries to give the benefit of the doubt of people. Callie, stubborn she may be, but she fights for the only family she has left. Rose, well it's Rose, the historian part of her, the quotes she has and she's just weirdly awesome to me.

       The story, it's not a bad story, like I said I did enjoy it. Would I reread this book? No. It wasn't something I was amazed by. I loved the idea of combining past witchery and modern-day witchery, but I was hoping for more of it. There were parts when I forgot this was a "witch" story. Did it claim it was a full-on witch story? No, but it hinted it was. Hence, I was hoping for more of the modern-day witchery. All and all there were scenes I did like reading about. There's a part where they were having Thanksgiving and Rose was outside with a tree, didn't want to go in just wanted to stay with the tree. So the owner of the home said to move the celebration outside so Rose can join as well. Or the TRUTH scene, which I will not tell you, cause then that's a spoiler. Not doing that.

       Prices! Now is it worth the price...for me no, if this was a 4 or a 5-star rating then yes, but this isn't the case. I've said this before and I will say it again. Don't just go by what I say. You may have a different view of it and you may like it more than I have. You never know.

✱Let me know if you've read the book?
✱If you have what did you think about it?
✱What would you tell others about this book?

Differen Gel Acne Treatment

Hey Everyone!

#ad       Differin Gel Acne Treatment is an over the counter treatment without a prescription from your doctor. One of the active ingredient that helps your acne is Adapalene aka Retinoid. To use this you have to be 12 years and older, if younger ask your doctor. Use it daily around the same time everyday. I prefer using it at night around 8pm. So I'm not in the sun at all when I use this product, but if you do have to go in the sun use sunscreen as well. Product first then sunscreen. You can also get their facial cleanser and moisturizer.

       Remember this may not work for everyone. This is just what works for me. If you would like to give it a try, feel free to.

       For me it's worth the price! I'm definitely going to be saving money to buy me some more.

               PROS                                                                            CONS
  • Clears up acne                                                      •  Drier skin
  • Dries quickly                                                        •  Irritation (redness, itching, dryness, burning)
  • Not much needed                                                  •  Skin Sensitivity
  • No Prescription
  • Once a day
  • Easy to use 
  • Worth the Price

This is how I see it. When your skin is using something for the first time, it NEEDS time to get use to it. That's why you try things out. It also says, "Irritation (redness, itching, dryness, burning) is more likely to occur in the first few weeks of use." If after the few weeks and it's still happening, then you should stop using it and ask your doctor before using again.

What's In The Box? Crowdtap November 2017

Hey Everyone!

        Back again with another What's In The Box?!?!?! You excited cause I am!

        Here I have a box of goodies. Crowdtap sent me Unilever goodie with different kind of brands in them. Want to watch the video instead CLICK HERE. If your into reading instead continue on.

***My Own Opinion***

1.) POND'S Original Fresh Towelettes ()



        AKA Makeup Remover Wipes. Its a nice scent, not overpowering, it removes your makeup, leaves face smooth and soft. The ONLY problem I had was the FIRST wipe. It felt really rough around the eyes and the next day you saw my eye lids puffy and irritated. I had to wait a day or two so I can give it another try. Strangely it didn't even irritate my eyes after a couple of more uses. Didn't feel like sand paper around my eyes. I give it 3 stars, I wouldn't buy this, rather just get the cold cream cleanser.




2.)Dove Clinical Protection Prescription strength wetness protection with ¼ moisturizer Cool Essentials 48hr odor protection antiperspirant (★★★★)



        So far I've been loving the Clinical Protection line! It does what its suppose to do. Dries within the hour and it doesn't re-hydrate the deodorant with you get the sweaty mess going. Never a nice feeling. Protects you from that sweaty mess. Refreshing under the pits and smooth feeling. You can smell a bit of the cucumber. Favorite deodorant 5 stars, will I buy it? Yes!






3 & 4.) Nexxus Therappe Shampoo & Humectress Conditioner (★★★★★)



       Its Ultimate Moisture, Caviar Complex, and Concentrated Protein does wonders to my hair. My hair hasn't felt this healthy in a long time. Shampoo's Silicone Fee helps to nourish and softens hair while the conditioner gives the protective barrier to keep it soft and bouncy. Shampoo smells like coconuts and the conditioner has a fruity scent. These are my favorite products. 5 stars and YES I would buy this.






5.) Dove Fresh Solid Deodorant (★★★★)

              First off, this has a cute dove logo on the deodorant. Goes away as soon as you first use which is sad. Silky application, soft when rubbed in (with arms not hands). Signature scent that we all know and love. This is great for a casual day out, when you're hanging with friends, grocery shopping, ect.. I would not recommend using it for working out it feels icky afterwards, too moist under the pits. Other than that, I would still buy this. I don't know about you, but I have a deodorants for chill days and workout days. This is definitely a chill day deodorant.

What's In The Box? & Testing Crowdtap October 2017

Hey Everyone!

        OMG! This time around Crowdtap had put more than one (1) product in the box, I have five (5) products to test out. For video CLICK HERE. Unilever is a consumer goods company, they are the reason why I get to try these products to test, which I'm grateful for. Not only do I get to try them out, but I don't have to worry to buy any deodorant for awhile. Four (4) products are Dove's brand and one (1) Suave brand.




 *My Opinions*

1.)Dove Advanced Care Cleartone Sheer Touch 48hr (★★★★)
Its a nice looking product on the outside and the inside. Pop it open and you can see its your usual antiperspirant bar (like a bar a soap). You can smell the deodorant , it has the usual dove scent and clean smelling. When you apply the deodorant, its silky smooth and at first I couldn't smell the scent, but  when your not paying attention you'll all of a sudden smell it. After put it on, you feel silky smooth armpits. The only thing I don't like about it is it stays moist (yes I know some people don't like that word, but I don't know another word for it.) If you're a sweaty person like I am, this is not going to feel nice for workouts or sweaty pits.

2.)Dove Clinical Protection Prescription strength wetness protection with ¼ moisturizer Soothing Chamomile 48hr odor protection antiperspirant (★★★★)
This is the first deodorant I was testing out. Now to get to the deodorant you got to open a box, packaging is cute, very feminine looking. Pop it open, you’ll see the sticker covering the deodorant, just peel it off and crank that bad boy up. Comes out looking like a Mexican Candy (Pelon Pelo Rico), don’t eat the deodorant! It’s feels really creamy and smooth, you can smell a little of the chamomile, but mostly dove powdery scent. Definitely can smell it when you lift your arms to stretch and when you’re walking around, it does leave white residue on your pits, not on the shirt, not on my shirt at least, I don’t know about anyone else’s. I didn’t really like that, seemed like if I had dandruff on my pits, which I thought it was funny, but other than that it’s a really great product. For a sweaty person this will be great. Doesn’t get all wet in the pits, don’t feel icky and its smooth on the skin. I LOVE SMELLING IT. If I can have my noise on my pits with that scent, I’d be ok with it.

3.) Dove Dry Spray Antiperspirant Deodorant Sensitive with ¼ moisturizer 48hr (★★★★)
Love the idea of being a spray! Should have given 5 stars, but this dumb dumb clicked 4 stars. Darn it!With that out of the way, I advise you to spray this with your shirt off because the white residue shows. I had accidentally sprayed my shirt when I was applying the deodorant. Tried to rub it off, but that didn't go so well. Good thing it washes off in the washer. It’s refreshing, leaves powder like feet to your armpits, smells great and it's cold when you spray it on! Don't be scared, embrace the cold spray because on a hot day it feels great!

4.) Suave Essentials Cocoa Butter & Shea Body Wash (★★★★)
I've used the brand before and I like it a lot. Smells really good; you can smell it after a shower for a couple of hours, then it disappears. First uses of it, the only thing I didn't like was it left my skin dry. I don't use a towel to dry off, I just air dry, so I wanted to see how dry my skin would get after using the body wash. Well, let's just say I NEEDED lotion or something so I didn't look ashy on the arms or stomach. My skin is not sensitive, but sometimes it has a mind of its own. Some days it's drier than others. I say still give it a try you skin may react differently. Like I said, it only happened a couple times, but after awhile of using it, my skin got use to it.

5.) Dove Style + Care Strength & Shine Flexible Hold Hairspray (★★★★)
I don't normally use hairsprays, gel or any hair styling products unless it's a special occasion, but I thought I'd give it a try anyways. Main reason I don't like some hair styling products, is the "stiff bulletproof" hair! Hair so hard that a bullet will bounce off (in reality of course it won't stop a bullet), okaaaay. You can't run your fingers through your hair with that. I'm a type of person that if my hair is down I play with my hair because my hands have nothing better to. I don't want to feel a helmet on my head when I'm not wearing one. Or get stabbed by my own hair tips because it's so stiff. With Dove Style + Care Strength & Shine Flexible Hold  Hairspray, I can play with my hair without it trying to hurt me. Use it as you were to use any hairspray. It doesn't have that strong scent hairsprays have, dries super fast, not sticky to your hands, soooometimes frizzy hair just happens (not 100% frizz-proof, but it helps a lot), gives a natural feel to your hair, which I love and your hair does seem to get softer and healthier after awhile of using spray. I'm in love with this product!

What's In The Box? & Testing BzzAgent October 2017

Hey Everyone!

       Welcome back! I’ve been testing Glade Plugins Car with my Mom, since the plugin is in her car. (Click Here to the Video)  Any product that can freshen a car up I’m happy to try out.

We were excited to try Glade Plugins Car. It’s a simple device to use, add your refill, close lid and plug in to car port and you’re ready to go. Now depending where your car port is at and if you have a gear handle down in the middle console or not. With my Mom’s car, she has her gear handle in the middle console and where her car port is, is where her hand bangs against the Glade Plugin and that’s not good! It sticks out too much and it’s in the way a lot. We can’t smell the scent even on high level.  Mom’s rating is 3 out of 5 stars and for me it’s 2 out of 5 stars. We’re not getting refills. I’m going to finish still, it’s almost done anyways and give the device to someone else and give them a refill as well.


                              ❤LocaChunkyMonkey❤



Glade Plugins Car Starter Kit Prices:
   1.) Wal-Mart- $4.88

Review "Convicted: A Crooked Cop, An Innocent Man, and an Unlikely Journey of Forgiveness and Friendship" by Jameel McGee & Andrew Collins with Mark Tabb


Hey Everyone!

        Got another book done. Would you like to know if I liked it or not? Continue reading and you will find out.

         Here we have "Convicted: A Crooked Cop, An Innocent Man, and an Unlikely Journey of Forgiveness and Friendship" by Jameel McGee & Anderw Collins with Mark Tabb. Published 9/19/2017. Wow, say that with one breath, haha! The way the book is described as... (picture of quote below). 
Quote (Back of Book)
        This has been an interesting book, knowing Jameel (Innocent Man) and Andrew (Crooked Cop) had went through all that, is insane! 
Book Cover Published 9/19/2017
        Jameel "Zookie" McGee, a man who grew up in Benton Harbor, Michigan, as he explains growing up there you needed to be tough if not you'd end up being a drug dealer, life of crime or dead, very little hope for the town, but it doesn't stop him from living there. One day he heard the news of his ex coming over to drop his son off through the excitement he noticed he need to go to the store and get some necessities for his baby boy. He couldn't drive his car because his license was suspended. So he had to ask for a ride, which on of his cousin said sure, but he didn't know his cousin well just know he was relative. Goes in the store to get what he needs, then out he comes all he saw was a man walking towards him and asking, "Where's the dope, man?" (page 8) After that everything went down hill for Jameel.

         Andrew Collins, a cop in the same town as Jameel, wanted to become a cop since he was a kid, but when he realized being a cop wasn't a good pay, he started thinking of ways within the precinct of how to make a quicker and much better pay (illegal way). At first, it start out with something small like if he knew 100% that the person was a drug dealer, but couldn't find anything on him, Andrew would say he SAW the person throw the evidence. OR search a vehicle without permission like having a probable cause to search the vehicle (Smelling some kind of narcotics off the vehicle.) He didn't stop there, he continued he false reports/evidence, informants (person who gives information to another), all of it FALSE. Eventually karma get him back. Makes any cases he had would be overturned meaning they would all be free from prison.

Snap a picture of where I was reading.
            Such an amazing story, can't believe it even happens, but we all must realize... IT DOES. It's rare that an innocent person goes to prison, but it happens and Andrew knew he was doing wrong, but owns up to it. No reason to lie if he's been caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Now they both had turned to God for guidance. Their faith in God leads them back to each other in some odd ways, but who are they to question the path they take? I'm sure anyone who were in either one of their shoes would walk the other way from the path have taken.

            Its not easy to rate these type of books because its their personal experience. It takes a lot of courage to put that part of their life for the world to read. Now don't bash me because of my rating, you may have a different opinion which is fine. I rate this 3 stars (★★★). I enjoyed the book, but I can't sit here and say I'm over the moon for it. It felt like it needed more work to it. I'm not an author or writer, but that's how I feel. My say so shouldn't stop you from getting this book.

             Now let's talk about pricing. Where can you buy it for cheap or full price, but still be new?

✔ Amazon: Kindle $11.99
                     Hardcover $15.43 (on sale I don't know how long)

✔ Penguin Random House: Ebook $11.99
                                                Hardcover $21.99

✔ Waterbrook & Multnomah: (same as Penguin Random House pricing)

✔ Barnes & Noble: NOOK Book $11.99
                                 Audiobook $17.98
                                 Hardcover $15.59 (on sale I don't know how long)

What's In The Box? & Testing Crowdtap (Late) August 2017

Hey Everyone!

        Welcome back! I’m coming back with a little something different for US. If you want to go straight to video Click Here, but if you want to just continue reading, continue. Let me tell you up front, this video was complicated for me. Normally I don’t do these type of videos, but for the sake of testing we shall try. Going to remind you that I only use a Samsung Galaxy S3 as my video/camera, I don’t have a view finder or a ring lamp or anything fancy. So I can’t see if it’s focus in the right spot or if its too bright or too dark. I’m basically winging it! Be aware, I make a lot of faces at myself when I put on makeup. Don’t confuse my faces for my reaction to the liner. Now time for testing!!!

          Opening the box and seeing a nice little Marc Jacobs Beauty box, for some reason I felt special. I don’t know why, it may be because the brand itself or the box.  Within the box it comes with 2 Marc Jacobs Highliner Matte Gel Eye Crayon; Pink of Me(Light Pink)  and (Earth)Quake (Chocolate Brown). It holds 0.5g/0.01oz doesn’t have much of the product like regular pencils, but it comes with a sharpener under the pencil when you pull the bottom off. On the website of Marc Jacobs it claims to be waterproof and the price is $25.

Eye Results, Swatches, Package
          Swatching these liners felt so amazing. It felt velvety smooth, and so creamy; feels very light in your hand. Applying the liner is pretty easy, it glides nicely, it’s okay in blending (have to work at it a bit). The pigment is all there as you see in the video/pictures. I’m having a hard time in NOT liking the product, its an amazing liner, love that it’s matte, glides beautifully, I’m just loving it, doesn’t smudge, AND its waterproof (meaning if you go swimming it won’t come off)! Product itself is pretty darn near perfect for my wants in a liner; just the price always ends up killing me. $25 for a 0.5g/0.01oz (one pencil), but even though the price is pricey I believe it’s worth it. This would be a splurge kind of gift to yourself not for an every week kind of buy product.

Review "Here and Gone" by Haylen Beck

Hey Everyone!

        Welcome Back! You Miss ME? I Miss YOU! Alright, enough with the mussy stuff. Here we have an author I have never heard of, which is always exciting. It's like meeting a new friend. When I was researching this book, I read that "Haylen Beck" is not his real name it's Stuart Neville! Then I researched him and found out he was a known author from Northern Ireland, also here in the U.S.. He has won awards for his best known book The Ghosts of Belfast (American Edition of The Twelve), has a total of 8 Novels out, including Here and Gone. He seems to be doing well for his career! Congratulation!! Now why did he use a pen name for his recent book? Who knows and who cares! As long as he can make a great book, which he did, it shouldn't matter if he's using a pen name! Let me tell you what Here and Gone is about.



Book Cover
        It deals with a mother, Audra, who escapes from an abusive husbad and tries to start fresh with her 2 children, Sean and Louise. While she drives from New York to California, she's stopped by an Arizona Sheriff in the middle of the desert. While he searches thru their belongings, he finds a bag of drugs, which she has never seen in her trunk. Thinking the worst has come, she didn't know it's just the beginning.

        Let's talk about the PROS & CONS

PROS
  • Great story line
  • Love Sean & Danny (characters)
  • Suspenseful
  • Thriller
  • Point of View from Mother, both kids and Danny
CONS
  • Predictable
  • Won't read twice
        Their wasn't much dislike, which is great! If I could give this book a 3.5 stars on Goodreads I would, but sadly it doesn't. So I gave 3 stars. I enjoyed every word in the book. Its a good starter for new thriller readers. I was able to read this book in 3 days and for me that's fast! Is it worth the buy? For me personally, NO. Why? Because $15-$20 is not my range in buying a book. I usually get my books from Dollar Stores or The Salvation Army store or the Public Library (which I have not done in YEARS!). I'm even gotten books as gifts. But since this book is a NEW and only been out since June 20, 2017, YES, it's not a bad price for a new book and theirs other books out their that are way more expensive.

Review "Surviving Death: A Journalist Investigates Evidence of the Afterlife" By Leslie Kean


Hey Everyone!

        When a book can get a reaction out of you, may it be crying, laughing, excitement, etc., its a good book. Love it when a book can make you go through emotions. Books got to have a great story line, characters, creative imagination or in this case great research. Investigative journalist and author Leslie Kean has two books under her belt, this current book Published March 7, 2017 and "UFOs: Generals, Pilots, And Government Officials Go On The Record" Published August 2, 2011. 

                                                                 No Spoilers Ahead
Book Cover
        Lets jump into this review! I've always had the interest of life after death, but not only does this book explore life after death, it also explores reincarnation, coming back to life, mediums/psychics (different elements to their abilities), and kinesis (different kinds). This book has many researchers work, not only her work, but works of MDs (Doctor of Medicine), MSW (Master Social Worker), PhDs (Doctor of Philosophy), DLitt (Doctor of Letters), and MS (Master of Science). All these researchers had put their work, in this book, for us readers to understand "Surviving Death". Some of the work is also personal experience, others experience, control testing, and etc. It is so well written and researched, I am amazed of all the hard work Leslie and others had put into the book.

        The book cover is a clean look, kinda blinding and if you take the cover off, my gosh the book is so white I feel like I need to put a pair of gloves on just so I don't have finger prints on it. I didn't though just put on paper bag cover on the book. Now before you ask why don't you just use the sleeve it comes with. I just don't like having the sleeve on when I read, I take it off put it somewhere it won't get damaged and then I read or paper bag cover especially if their that white. Its going to have Hot Cheetos prints on it if I didn't put the cover on. As you read on throughout the book, it will open up your mind and make you think, "Is it possible?" Its such an exciting book, you don't really want to put the book down. Some parts may be calm of a read, but the most part it's a fast read, which for me it's reading it under a year. I'm the slowest reader there is, I'll be super happy when I get it done in within a couple of months, ecstatic when done within a week. Enjoyed all the different directions they went to dismiss any kind of fake facts or anything that will contaminate the testings. I mean they get down to business, they're no joke, they want to make sure their work is as authentic and true to any evidence they come across. Did I mention I LOVE the hard work that's been put into this....well I'm saying it again!!!

                                                               📖 Favorite Quotes 📖
  • "In these pages I will take you on a journey into this world." pg. 2 Line 8
  • "Yet, this is far from a catalog of evidence for the survival of bodily death." (Its more for the phrase "survival of bodily death") pg. 2 Line 20
        Now the question is, is it worth buying? I enjoyed reading it. If your into reading research, paranormal, nonfiction, and spirituality kind of books I say it's worth buying. It's just my opinion, I'm not here to tell you what you should or should not read. Its all up to you!

Smiley360 Unboxing and Testing July 2016

Hey Everyone!

        Welcome back, if you couldn't tell already from the title I have tested the KABOOM No Drip Foam Mold & Mildew Remover Stain Remover with Bleach! Now that's a mouth full. (DON'T SPRAY IN YOUR MOUTH!!!)

       Well, that's said, I was sent a full size product. It's a 30oz spray bottle. Now before getting into the cleaning, you should wear something you don't care about; which I call "Don't give a Fuck" clothes, afterall you will be working with bleach. Also make sure your windows are open or bathroom vents are on because the vapor in the spray is really strong. My vent didn't work and after being in their for awhile I was having a hard time breathing. So learn from me, at least put a fan in with you or step out.

      Now to the cleaning. Its plain and simple. Twist the spray part to On unlike me who tried to spray with it on STOP! Genius I am... NOPE! I like it when its a foam form, why you may ask. For me its a personal preference, but it also seems to work better because of the thick foam, it coats the gunk in the shower especially the grime on the shower doors.  When you spray the foam stays put (don't let it sit too long), unlike the liquid sprays it drips down the wall. I just let it sit for about 5 seconds, then scrub it all down, finally I used the shower hose to rinse it all down. The shower doors on the outside I sprayed, scrubbed, then used a paper towel to "rinse" off the foam. That's all there is to it. Nothing difficult about it.

     Price baby! Surprisingly its cheap. You can find it at Wal-mart or Target starting at about $3.88/$3.89. I say it's worth the price. If you want to see this product in action head over to my YouTube Channel link down below with all my Social Media links as well. Thank-you for taking the time to read and checking out this product.

PINCHme Review |Purina Beneful Grain Free

Hey Everyone!


Welcome back! Kasper gets to test his sample Purina Beneful Grain Free Accented with Blueberries, Pumpkin & Spinach. You will see how fast he chooses. If that doesn't tell you what your likes most, then I don't know what to tell you. Also it was suppose to come with a $2 OFF inside the sample, but for some reason I didn't get one. Who knows what happened there. Align for Kids Chewables... I have given it to a friend, she'll have better use including the $5 OFF coupon. Now here I test the Sensodyne Deep Clean toothpaste, it's very refreshing, definitely last longer than your usual toothpaste, a bit foamy, it works wonders for sensitive tooth. I would recommend this to those who have sensitive teeth. Give it a try. I honestly don't know why I even record myself brushing my teeth, but just in case you don't know how ..... YOUR WELCOME.

Review: "The Roanoke Girls" by Amy Engel

Hey Everyone!

       Ever had a book that you just couldn't put down because it's too good? Well...I just  found one and this book is amazing I could NOT put it down for the life of me. Right off the back, it's not for everyone, it may disturb some people. 17/18 years old looks like the right age to read this book. Let's continue. This book is enticing, mysterious, it had you thinking at times, it also made me feel sad, angry, shocked and relief. First off, when I read the title, I thought it was going to be about the Roanoke Colony a.k.a. The Lost Colony. Oh how happy I was wrong. Let's talk about the cover of this book. It has black and white photos in picture frames made out of wood, all girls except for the farmhouse in the middle. Usually when I see black and white photos I think of the dark side; like bad experience or horrible life, excreta.
Book Cover
      This is Amy's first Adult Novel and I give 5 stars here and on Goodreads! It's an incredible read. You will not be disappointed. I love the little things she had put into it, like her book cover and some writings her character has done. What you see is "carved" words onto any kind of woods in the house. It's a different kind of format from the rest of the book.
Page 248
      The story is about Lane Roanoke, 15 years old, lost her mother and she was left alone. So she thought, little did she know she has family from her mother's side. She knew nothing of them and now she's been shipped to Osage Flats, Kansas in the summer time and picked up by the families handy man, Charlie. Takes her to Roanoke Farmhouse, meets the family; Gran (Lillian), Granddad (Yates), Allegra (cousin), Sharon (maid/cook; horrible cook). Later that summer Lane will know the disturbing/dark secret of the family and will leave, away from Roanoke. Only to come back, 11 years later because Allegra has gone missing! She wasn't sure what to think, did she run as well? I won't say more, but I will show you the first sentence.


First Sentence page 3
      The sentence alone brought you in. You want to know WHY, why would she do that to her kid. Of course, you will find out later on in the book. There's a quote in the book "Roanoke girls never last long around here. In the end, we either run or we die." (page 12) That quote made me think a lot, now why would Allegra say that. Was she just telling Lane scary stories or was their a deeper meaning to it?
      This book definitely had me hooked and it is a well written story. I'm very glad I picked this book over the other options I had. Now if all books can get me just as interested in the story as I did with this I would be set for life. I also love the fact that when someone packed my book for delivery it says how handled my package...SHOUTOUT to D. Hann for taking sure care of the package and the mail man for not destroying my package and the hard work D. Hann had did. Thank-you!
