Welcome to my altered journey through life. You never know if I will be into home improvements, knee deep in a good book, on an Alaskan cruise or just being silly. I hope this blog will give you tips, tricks, ideas and books to add to your TBR list. Thanks for stopping by.

Review: The Spectacular
The Spectacular by Fiona DavisMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I wish I could give this one 10 stars! Fiona Davis is near the top of my MUST-READ list these days. I have loved every book she has written. If you are not familiar with Ms. Davis, you should be. Every book she writes is set in a NYC landmark and features some type of drama along with that landmark, which often becomes a character too. The Spectacular is set in Radio City Music Hall, where Marion has just landed a job as a Rockette. Marion's family doesn't agree with her decision to dance and there is a bomber loose in the city. The Big Apple bomber has been terrorizing New York for 16 years, and I will not spoil anything about what he does or if he is caught. What you need to know is that this book is just like the title states.....SPECTACULAR!!!
This will be my monthly book pick for June.

Review: I'm No Philosopher, But I Got Thoughts: Mini-Meditations for Saints, Sinners, and the Rest of Us
I'm No Philosopher, But I Got Thoughts: Mini-Meditations for Saints, Sinners, and the Rest of Us by Kristin ChenowethMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
You are not going to like this book if you don't like a person with a bubbly personality, a person that loves God, or a book about a Broadway star. I did the audio so Kristin could read it to me, and I adored that part. She sings to you, and talks about her faith and her beginnings.

Review: Survive the Bomb: The Radioactive Citizen's Guide to Nuclear Survival
Survive the Bomb: The Radioactive Citizen's Guide to Nuclear Survival by Eric G. SwedinMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
This book was not quite what I expected, but I did like it. It was full of information that was given to the public about nuclear fallout. Information like what to do, what to expect, how to pack your survival kit and how to build your safe space.
