My Sisters Keeper

I just got done reading "My Sisters Keeper" By Jodi Picoult
It was well written, and amazing story, and also the saddest book I have EVER read. If you have a sister, you must read this book. I did not just cry at the end of this book, I sobbed. I can't wait to see the movie. I know you are thinking "Why would I want to see something so sad?", but this story reminds you how precious life is and I think everyone needs that reminder sometimes. My only recommendation is to keep some Kleenex with you because by the end of the book you will be crying, whether you are a big tough guy or a woman who never cries, because if you are a mother, father, sister, or a brother with sisters, you will be crying.

Title: 50 Ways to Hex your Lover
Author: Linda Wisdom
This is a cute story about a witch, her long time on and off again vampire boyfriend, a car that is cursed with an annoying ghost named Irma, and bunny slippers that eat things. It is funny and I loved it!

Author Review

Annette Blair
I am completely in love with this author, I have read 6 of her books so far and they are all amazing and leave you wanting more. I have read two of her trilogies, the first trilogy is "The Accidental Witch Trilogy" and the second is "The Triplet Witch Trilogy" I wont go into depth about the books since I have already mentioned them on here, I just wanted everyone to know that reading these books will not be a disappointment. I know that paranormal books are not everyone favorite but these books have so much more depth than the fact that the main characters are witches. They have the most amazing and romantic love stories and so much more!
So... I am officially on my mini vacation, I am soooo excited to have three whole days off! Tomorrow is Shanes 29th birthday and we are going to his parents house for a family bday party.. I got him a cookie dough ice cream cake from cold stone.
For 4th of July I am still not sure what we are planning but I am sure we will think of something. Well I hope everyone has a good holiday! It is time for me to put on some coffee and curl on the couch with a good book....hmmm...which to read next?

The Accidental Witch Trilogy






Book 1: The Kitchen Witch


"Bewitching Romantic Comedy"

"The Kitchen Witch is one of the best romantic comedies I've ever read, bar none." —Deirdre Martin

When Salem, Massachusetts TV Producer, Logan Kilgarven, needs a sitter, his mysterious new downstairs neighbor comes highly recommended. But when Melody Seabright opens her star-studded door, Logan knows she's just the kind of woman who can knock him back on his bad-boy ass.

With showmanship, magic spells, sex appeal, and a dynamite concept--THE KITCHEN WITCH--the culinary challenged siren cons her way into hosting her own cooking show. Logan's boss is charmed, his son is in love, and Logan is in lust. Maybe she really is a witch....

Amid cooking disasters and cooking lessons, hot sexual encounters, and fighting the heat--in and out of the kitchen--Logan learns to see beyond the wacky witch to the woman beneath, while Melody is surprised to find herself worthy of love.









Book 2: My Favorite Witch


After catching her jock-fiancee in bed with her sister, Kira Fitzgerald has opted for a new start, working for charity at The Pickering Foundation. Imagine her delight when she discovers that her new boss is also a jock. Imagine the jock's delight when he discovers that his new coordinator is an honest to goddess witch, of the spell-casting, penis-withering variety.

Because the jock's grandmother is their boss, and a matchmaker, not only do they have to work together, they have no choice but to share living quarters as well. Thank the Goddess Kira knows a few magic curses to keep the sexy-as-hell jock from rattling her nerves.

Jason Pickering Goddard has uttered a few curses himself, without the magic, at his bum leg, the result of a car accident that ended his hockey career--temporarily, he hopes--and at his grandmother who's roped him into helping save The Pickering Foundation's school for boys. Jason knows the doctors are wrong, and it's just a matter of time before he's back on the ice. But the only ice he sees coming for the moment is from Kira Fitzgerald, his new Coordinator of Special Events.






Book 3: The Scot the Witch and the Wardrobe



Talk about meeting the man of your dreams ... A Highland Scot with a hidden agenda and a hereditary Pictish Witch in denial discover shared dreams and a century-old spell that could change them forever

Salem, Massachusetts

Like her female ancestors before her, Victoria Cartwright inherits the key to the bewitched contents of her family's mysterious attic wardrobe ... except that no one has ever succeeded in opening it. Only the daughter who inherits her ancestor's magic will be able to turn the key ... meet her destiny ... and complete her ancestor's spell.

Caperglen, Scotland

A pariah in his own village, like his ancestors before him, Rory MacKenzie is searching for the carousel unicorn that his many-great grandfather carved and was bewitched into giving away. Bringing the family treasure back to Scotland and reuniting it with the other eleven zodiac figures will satisfy the locals who were raised with the daft notion that the unicorn will restore village prosperity. It died the day the unicorn was shipped to America a century before. But all Rory wants is to restore the MacKenzie name to dignity.

When a carousel unicorn with the sign of Aquarius beneath its forelock shows up on the Antiques Roadshow, Rory heads to Salem, Massachusetts to see if Miss Victoria Cartwright's unicorn has the hidden compartment that his ancestor carved beneath the saddle.

After they meet, their shared dreams escalate and become more explicit, more erotic. Something witchy or downright magical is happening in Salem.









These area just the best books, I strongly recommend them. All the info for the books is from Annette Blairs website, she has other books too so stop by and check them out.
