Alienated, book by Melissa Landers (Alienated #1)

Vellum “Quote Stacks” by DCWV (Wedding and Romance)

These booklets of quotes, called “Quote Stacks” are really quite useful. I bought mine at Michael’s craft stores. They are a bit on the expensive side, considering that they could be made on your computer, but it is hard to print things neatly on vellum.
Each stack has 48 sheets. …

Final Crisis: Legion of Three Worlds Miniseries

The Coming of Abel Behenna by Bram Stoker

Normally, I like Bram Stoker’s books and stories. I’m not sure this was the case with The Coming of Abel Behenna.

Starting Out in the Evening by Brian Morton

I found this book in the mystery, thriller section. But its not, which still bugs me. It’s a beautiful book. It’s about family and the relationships in it. Like a strict father and a free spirit daughter. You feel like you know these characters like your best friend. But …

Warm-up-inspiration for choir conductors

This booklet with a selection of 18 warm-ups for SATB-choirs has been a big inspiration to my warm-ups with different choirs. The warm-ups are notated for 4-part-choir, but are just easy to use with one, two or three parts. They cover a number of different styles, and each exercise …

Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson

I don’t know why I picked up this book, but I sure am glad that I did. Maybe it?s because the copy I borrowed from my library was pretty beat-up looking, and I thought to myself, ‘this book’s seen better days.’ I was hooked on page one. I sacrificed …

Barnes and Noble Nook

Compared to the Kindle, the Nook is simply so much better. The Kindle offers 3G, but it only works well if you connect to their online book store. There are two versions of the Nook. There is the one with wi-fi and the one with wi-fi and a 3G …

Sorceress of Belmair by Bertrice Small

Emotional Intelligence by Daniel Goleman

I am not a huge fan of self-help books, but I am a huge fan of this one; Emotional Intellignece by Daniel Goleman. I have read this book several times, and although it is now 12 years old, it continues to fly off bookstore shelves at a rapid speed.
Emotional …

High Society by Dave Sim

High Society is the second volume of Dave Sim’s Cerebus series. In some ways it is markedly different from the first, in that it is all a self-contained, single story (which stretches over 30 issues). It is also much more political than the first volume (although the …

Wired Magazine

Wired Magazine is one of the magazines that I love to borrow from the library or buy from Borders. It has lots of information on gadgets and IT stuffs; though not all that I understand and could relate to, I simply enjoy most issues maybe because of its exclusivity …

Book : Never-Ending-Snake by Aimee & David Thurlo

I haven’t been reading many mysteries lately. I’ve caught up on most of the mystery series I’ve started reading over the years and haven’t found a new series to be interested in. Therefore I was pleasantly surprised to discover that I had missed the fifteenth Ella Clah novel, “Never-Ending …
