I Just Finished Reading...




I just finished reading 13 To Life.  It was excellent.  It was a mystery ridden book.  I loved it.  I loved the characters.  I loved the dogs.  I loved the horses.  I loved the Russian werewolves. I even loved the little Russian dolls that you open and another one comes out and you keep on opening until a teeny tiny one is left.  There just has to be a sequel.  It had just about everything in it that a perfect YA Fantasy book should have.  It even had perfect mean girls and tons of unrequited love.
It was a really great book.

Saving The Earth...One Bag At A Time...

Of course...I was doing a bit of online shopping the other day and I happened to find this bag at a site that was new to me called planetshoes.com.  I found this bag and for some odd reason loved it...


My bag is lined and sewn beautifully and even zippers...I love it...call me quirky but I know I will get another one soon.


It is made by a company called Webe and here is their statement...
