The Not Exactly Scarlet Pimpernel by C. P. Lesley ebook review



Ninel Pennington, better known as Nina, has one goal in mind: to finish her Ph.D. dissertation on the French Revolution. But the professor she has chosen to supervise her work has too many students already. To win his acceptance, she must excel in a virtual-reality computer game based on her favorite novel, "The Scarlet Pimpernel." When she lands the coveted role of Marguerite, the novel's heroine, Nina is overjoyed. Sure, Marguerite's a beautiful birdbrain, but Nina can ace this assignment in her sleep! Or so she thinks until she realizes that she's committed herself to spend two weeks as the estranged wife of her least-favorite fellow grad student, cast as the Scarlet Pimpernel himself. The game also pits Nina against Marguerite, a coquettish socialite who wants only to get this meddlesome stranger out of her head. As the Pimpernel's adversary closes in, and Nina figures out that only an alliance with Marguerite's husband will ensure her survival, she becomes ever more desperate to fix Marguerite's life. But Marguerite, it turns out, also has a few pointers for Nina. And before Nina fully grasps just how much trouble she's in, the Scarlet Pimpernel proves to be a good deal less estranged than she'd ever thought possible.

MY REVIEW

I very much liked this book. Very well writen and and it has adventure, romance and humour.I didn't think I would like this book but I always like to give books a chance. I must say it got me hooked from the very beginning and actually made me want to read The Scarlet Pimpernel by Baroness Orczy.

I highly recommend this book even if you haven't read The Scarlet Pimpernel by Baroness Orczy.

Oasap.com Elegant Tassel Detail Zipped Shoulder Bag review

Let me tell you about Oasap.com. This online store has a lot of cute clothing, purses,shoes and more.  I signed up to be part of the Oasap Fashion Hunters Program and let me tell you I was very excited when I got picked to do a review for them. Really I was supposed to take a photo of me with the purse but I have no one to take photos of me right now so I have no choice but to just take photos of the purse alone.


Anyways I picked the Elegant Tassel Detail Zipped Shoulder Bag . This purse is $30 in the site 



It was a little smelly (a fishy smell) when I got it so I had to let it air out a bit. I used it last weekend when I went grocery shopping and I zipped and unzipped the top zipper and the zipper broke on me. I mean the part you pull on broke when I will zipping it up again .

Sorry for the blurry photo but I took this with my phone.


Not sure if I just have a faulty one or if they are all like that but the little round thing that goes on the zipper is kinda flimsy.I mean even just looking at them they look like they are easy to break. 

I am disappointed because I really like this purse. From what I have been reading oasap.com has great reviews and I am hoping that my purse was just faulty but other than that I really like this purse. It looks just like in the photo on the site and it is big which is what I like in a purse because I like to bring a book everywhere I go plus of course my usual stuff  (i.e. makeup, hair elastics, cell phone, a notebook, pens, my wallet, gum ).

Good thing I got this for free because I think because of this experience I would not ever buy from this place but if I get asked to review an other product I will give them an other try and hopefully the next product I review will be better.

Haunted by Debra Glass ebook review



My hopes of having a normal life died when I did. Especially since my near death experience turned me into a clairvoyant with a disfiguring scar. Not exactly most-popular material.

Now, because of me, my whole family has been forced to move to some small town in Tennessee. My parents think a quiet new school and a new set of friends will heal me of the scars I carry both inside and out.

There’s just one problem. My house is haunted by Jeremiah Ransom, the charming ghost of a Civil War soldier who lived and died in my house. His presence makes me feel perfect. As if there’d never been a wound in the first place.

But I’m afraid that loving him will result in my death all over again.


MY REVIEW

What a fantastic book!! I started reading this yesterday and I just couldn't put it down. This a fast paced book that you will enjoy as much as I did. Oh and talk about a ending to this book!! I sure hope there is a sequal because I now want to read more. This is one I know I will be reading again in the future. If you like Young Adult paranormal romance novels you might like this one.

If you want to purchase this book you can do so on paperback or Kindle edition at amazon.com.

Noxicare Natural Pain Relief cream review & giveaway




Noxicare™ Natural Pain Relief is a breakthrough natural, patented pain relief formula that is a proprietary combination of 7 of the world’s most potent natural pain relievers that quickly and effectively alleviate inflammation, muscle aches and nerve pain—with NO known side effects and without a prescription.

What is in Noxicare™ Natural Pain Reliever?

Turmeric

Turmeric

One of the most powerful natural pain relievers known to exist; recognized for its anti-inflammatory properties. Turmeric is a powerful herb in the ginger family that contains curcumin as its active ingredient. Curcumin provides the health benefits of turmeric and turmeric extract, useful as an anti-inflammatory agent and as an antioxidant. Studies have shown that turmeric may help reduce the pain and irritation experienced by patients with irritable bowel syndrome and its anti-inflammatory properties help to naturally relieve pain associated with arthritis by reducing inflammation in the joints.
Willow bark

Willow Bark

Has been used for natural pain relief and inflammation since the time of Ancient Egypt and Greece. The use of willow bark dates back thousands of years when patients chewed on the bark to reduce fever and inflammation. Willow bark continues to be used today for the treatment of pain (particularly low back pain, tension headaches and osteoarthritis), and inflammatory conditions such as bursitis and tendinitis.
Ginger

Ginger

Helps relieve muscle pains, arthritis and rheumatism, and is a catalyst for improving the effectiveness of other herbs. Ginger is an effective anti-inflammatory agent used for thousands of years to alleviate arthritis, headaches, rheumatism and sore throat, while also naturally relieving muscle strains and knee pains experienced by athletes. The medicinal part of ginger is the rhizome, an underground stem that most people refer to as the root. Western herbalists classify ginger as a carminative, which settles the intestine and eases pain by removing gas from the digestive tract. This versatile and useful herb also serves as a catalyst for improving the effectiveness of other natural pain relieving herbs found in Noxicare™.
Rosemary

Rosemary Extract

Has served a variety of purposes including topical use for joint or musculoskeletal pain. Ancient Egyptians knew to relieve musculoskeletal pain by rubbing rosemary extract oil into their skin. Today, rosemary has become important due to its natural pain relief ability, as well as stimulate hair growth, boost mental activity and relieve respiratory problems.
Holy basil

Holy Basil

Properties include anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial and antiviral. Holy Basil is a plant indigenous to India and extremely well-regarded as beneficial for many different health problems. Holy basil inhibits inflammatory-causing enzymes that contribute to arthritis and other types of pain caused by inflammation. Holy basil has antimicrobial and anti-viral properties, and expectorant properties as well, useful in respiratory tract infections and during respiratory stress.
Boswellia

Boswellia Extract

Boswellia is a genus of trees native to India known for their fragrant resin which has many pharmacological uses, particularly as an anti-inflammatory and pain reliever. Boswellia extracts and oils have been used to treat back pain and has been compared in effectiveness to steroids in treating Crohn’s disease and other intestinal problems—without causing ulcers like aspirin family medications.
Alpha Lipoic Acids

Alpha Lipoic Acids

Antioxidants used for treating diabetic neuropathy and increasing blood flow to the nerves. Acid Alpha Lipoic Acid is a natural pain relief antioxidant made by every cell in the body, and is also found in foods such as red meats and spinach. It is well known for its proven pain relieving abilities, particularly against numbness, burning and pain often associated with diabetic neuropathy. ALA also helps vitamins C and E work better, and is used to treat and detox the liver.



MY REVIEW

I used this after my walk on Saturday. It was a long walk and  got home my left leg was hurting like it usually does. I put some of this natural pain reliever and it helped. Also I get a twitchy nerve or something like that and I have been putting some of this once per day on area and it helps that too. A 100ml bottle of the cream is $19.95 so it is a little expensive but I think it is worth it.

Nick Gill Waves Are Only Water album review


I was asked to review Nick Gill's new album , Waves Are Only Water. I do not usually review music because I am pretty picky when it comes to the music I like.

Anyways, I listened to all 7 songs from this album a few times during the past few days because I find that sometimes you need to listen to songs more than once before.  After listening to this  entire album at least 3 times I will say that I very much enjoyed this very much and for the first time in a long time I actually liked all songs from the album. I might end up buying Nick Gill's other album and I will be telling everyone I know who likes mix of rock, pop, and acoustic music.

Connect with Nick:

Facebook
Listen and download his music:

I give this album 4 out of 5.

I very much enjoyed this book. It is a fun good read although it was a little boring at the beginning but after reading a few chapters it starts getting better and actually fun. This is a book I will be keeping and reading again. I highly recommend this book.
