CBR Book#58: Haunted by Kelley Armstrong

This is the fifth book in Armstrong's Women of the Otherworld series. I don't think that there will be too many spoilers in this review, as we don't meet the narrator in the series until after she is dead. So, her being dead isn't a spoiler, just who the character is.

Strong & Sexy Exercise DVD: Watching But Not Doing Part 1

A couple of weeks ago, I entered a contest at Fit Fig & Friends to win the Poise Strong & Sexy exercise DVD. I won. I promised Fig and some other Pajibans that I would record myself doing the workout and then post it since the DVD cover makes this workout look crazy as hell. I decided that I should watch the DVD before I attempt to do the exercises on camera. (Don't worry, I'll still look a fool when I do this.) Once the credits started, I knew I had to share the bat-shit crazy within this tape. You're welcome.

CBR Book#57: Industrial Magic by Kelley Armstrong

There may be spoilers all up in huuurrrrr.

Oh, hello America! I didn't see you there!

I've been lazy. Well, lazy about reading books lately. I have watched a butt-ton of movies though. I'm thinking I might start trying to review movies since I've hit the magic number for Cannonball Read and have begun to slack on that front. The thing is, I need to remember that I want to review something before I watch it so I can take notes and such. I also have to turn off the damned Facebook while I watch. So, I might try that. I'll still be doing book reviews and I hope I'll take part in the next Cannonball Read. Until then, read my other blog, Beautiful Women Who Are Now Dead and the blog I sometimes contribute to, Godtopus Eats . Don't make me send the peacock after you.

CBR Book#56: Tales of the Otherworld by Kelley Armstrong

This is what I've been waiting for ever since reading Bitten. Armstrong hinted at strong backgrounds for all of the characters and mentioned lots of previous escapades preceding some of the books. In this collection, as in Men of the Otherworld, we get some of the stories that didn't fit into the novels. Including the beginning of Elena and Clay's relationship and the inevitable bite that started it all, which I have been dying to read. 

CBR Book#55: Frostbitten by Kelley Armstrong

Alright, you can mock my choice of reading materials all you want, but Kelley Armstrong is a hell of a writer. I know that some people are over the whole supernatural lean that most everything has anymore. But her books are different. There are relationships that one can actually relate to. The characters are not just one-dimensional men and women that happen to change into werewolves or cast spells. They change and grow and develop as the books go on. They realize mistakes and work to make sure they don't repeat them (for the most part).

CBR Book#54: Broken by Kelley Armstrong

There will most definitely be spoilers in this review.
