WOW! I thought Awaken Me Darkly was a terrific Alien Huntress novel. It couldn't possibly get better, right? Wrong! This is the second Alien book and boy was it awesome! Eden Black is an Assassin. Also happens to be an alien, from the Raka race -- beautiful, golden skin and hair,…

So we went grocery shopping last night and the hubby taped the finale of The Biggest Loser - the Aussie version - for me. I sat down this morning to watch the results and in some cases complete transformations. And it was cool. Though I would've liked Jillian and Bob to be there -- …

Well, it sure is! Of course, compared to other countries this probably doesn't quite register as cold... but it's cold for me. *scratching my head* Which come to think of it, doesn't take much. I get cold easy. Oh well. Winter's on the horizon and there's nothing I c…

Okay, so technically this album was released in 1990 or something like that... but it has a whole bunch of Madonna's early stuff -- all from the 80s! It's an awesome album. I've been after it for some time now (since the 90s) but just never got around to buying it, for some s…

The A-Team "I love it when a plan comes together." Col. John "Hannibal" Smith. Adding the above quote to yesterday's entry pretty much set me in the direction of the A-Team as an 80s Wednesday feature. Kinda makes me wonder why I've waited so long to …

This is the second Cal McDonald, Monster Hunter book. I read it in under twenty-four hours. It's not that long a book, but awesome all the same. I really enjoyed the first book Savage Membrane , so had to read the next one. And it didn't disappoint, that's for sure. Cal'…

Another terrific Grailkeepers novel! This one was a different narrator - Kate Trillo - but still full of adventure and danger. This time the Goddess grail in question is Hekate's. Kate interupts her sister's killer and puts a curse on him. Her life goes to hell from there as s…

So the hubby and I finally watched Peter Jackson's KING KONG last night... and loved it! It was a moving movie. Honestly, I didn't think it would be this great! The connection between Ann and Kong was amazing and touching. And the special effects were so outstanding I kept for…

Strawberry Shortcake Ah, who can forget this cute selection of dollies? Well actually, I did as soon as I was old enough. Lol. Though I loved this character when I was a tiny, little girl it just wasn't one of those that stayed significant for me years later. Of course, it coul…

Gee. I'm tired. You have no idea how much walking I've done in the last week. My legs are aching. I'm a little tired. Spent most of the morning walking around dropping my daughter off at school, then walking down to return some DVD hires to Blockbuster. Of course, then I had t…

WOW -- can this woman write or what? I'm a huge fan of her Weather Warden series, so when I heard she was writing for Bombshell , I was ecstatic! And having already read, and thoroughly enjoyed Devil's Bargain , I was anticipating this one. And it didn't disappoint. The ten…

Gee, I totally forgot it was Wednesday today! So I made a mad dash around the net trying to come up with this week's choice. And here it is: The album Thriller . Wikipedia: Thriller is an album by Michael Jackson, released by Epic Records December 1, 1982. The album…

Very cool cover, huh? So this was my reward for getting another first draft finished last week. And it was so good, it certainly felt like a reward. I love the Sazi series by CT Adams and Cathy Clamp, so when I found out this was coming out, I couldn't wait! It was well-worth th…
