Look out freak show lovers!  I just got the new Ripley's Believe It Or Not - Unlock The Weird   and you're gonna wanna check this out! I LOVE these books! This is the 2016 edition of the series and I am super ecstatic!  The eyes on the front are little holograms too and so freaking cool. Love the bright design and coloring of the cover. Definitely stands out and gets your attention and screams, "READ ME!" And there really is sooo much cool stuff inside.  My family and I are Huge Ripley's fans. Seriously. We also make it a ritual to visit the museum in Newport, Oregon at least 1x every year, or more. We are big fans of the strange, peculiar, weird and crazy. And this book satisfies our cravings! I had this on my wishlist but I actually got to review this one for free, in exchange for my opinions and assistance with promotion and it is just as AWESOME as I'd hoped.  I sat down with this by myself but pretty soon I was shouting ab

Fake Books

Ok so the phrase "fake books" totally threw me, but I guess they are music books with guitar chords and lyrics. I had never heard of these, but am actually totally psyched. They have fake books for the Beatles, Frank Sinatra, Jazz, Rock and more. Take a look at them all here: fake books ! This is actually pretty awesome as my son wants to learn how to play guitar. They have a huge selection of fake books at reasonable and comparable prices. I have also always wanted to learn how to play guitar...and with all these fake books I am seeing, I am kind of excited to learn some of these awesome songs! They also have different fake books for the different scales such as e flat, b flat, etc. There are over 8 pages of fake books. That is quite the collection. Excuse me while I peruse the site.

Sennheiser Bluetooth Headphones

So with all the new technology out there, especially when it comes to Bluetooth headphones, which do you choose? There are many brands, well known and lesser known. I recently discovered the Sennheiser Bluetooth headphones and I must say the quality of these are pretty good for the price, as well as the reviews. When looking for Bluetooth headphones, I look for functionality as well as comfort and design. These Sennheiser headphones all look super comfy. They come in different styles, from closed back, on-ear, and lightweight and heavy duty. They have a simple but sleek and modern looking design that ranges from style of headphones but are great for those who just want a good pair of headphones. You should definitely check them out. I've found a few I'd love to buy. Here's the link: http://www.guitarcenter.com/Sennheiser/Headphones.gc You will not regret trying  sennheiser bluetooth headphones ! :) This post is a sponsored post.

Women in Science - 50 Fearless Pioneers Who Changed The World

Image
I think, for being a girl, the biggest motivation and inspiration comes from reading about other girls and women who changed the world and how we live and how things are done. There are some Amazing people out there and some remarkable women who have done equally amazing things. I recently read the book, " Women in Science: 50 Fearless Pioneers Who Changed The World ," which was written and illustrated by Rachel Ignotofsky. The book is full of quick bios on 50 women who dramatically impacted science. From chemists to psychoanalysts, to writers conservationists, to engineers and cosmonautsand astronauts to mathematicians. The expanse of women across the field of science and related professions is inspiring. I never knew there were so many women in our history. We always focus on the men that changed the world, but now this book, puts the focus on all the women. Go Girl! At the beginning of the book, is a well written Introduction, that explains the sacrifice many w

With All Due Respect Review

With All Due Respect is a faith based guide book for parents who face challenges with their tween and teen children.  The authors have prepared a week written handbook to help parents understand what a healthy relationship between parent and child is, teach you practices and lessons to enforce boundaries and rules, increase healthy and loving communication, handle rebelliousness and more.  Each day, this book shares a relatable story that brings up typical challenges and issues we as parents go through with our children. There are also many thought provoking questions and a prayer to help you to ask for guidance through it. This book, With All Due Respect is for any and parents who want to have a deeper and healthier relationship with their child and incorporate their faith into their lives.  I found this book to be very helpful and informative. We always say, as a child, "parents just don't understand." This will help you to understand and guide your child. And
