Summary: Myrnin and Oliver, who have a strange affinity, mostly because they’re both capable of being utterly weird and cruel when pushed, but also capable of kindness, too. Myrnin’s kindness is on display here, but so is his weirdness, and Oliver’s cruelty. A little of everything, and a creepy tale of a pursuit that ends in a sinister house with secrets, ghosts, lies, and monsters. I am beyond impressed with this short story! And I didn't know that I needed some more Oliver and Myrnin scenes. I love how they interact with each other and I am curious to know exactly how old they both are. It was also so interesting how one is haunted by the past while the other looks only to the future and does not like to dwell on things that cannot be changed. There is definitely a lot that we can learn from those two and I am so happy we got this insight!  Do you know what is scarier than an old vampire who is a little psycho? The ghost of a little girl who scares said psycho vampire. It's n...

 Product Summary: This clay mask enhanced with strawberry extract helps tone sine and diminish the appearance of large pores. Shea and cocoa butter nourish and moisturize. Perfect for the t-zone, normal and dry skin types. Cost: $3-5 ***Cruelty free*** I am a big fan of skincare and I try to be mindful not to overly cleanse my face so I don't ruin my skin barrier. So I haven't used a clay mask since before the start of the summer but I have used gentle cleansers at most 1-2 a week. So I am in need for a good purge.  When it comes to my skin and the week leading up to my period it can at times look a little rough and sometimes my t-zone will have a surprise pimple. This mask came at the right time to help my skin out.  It helped purge some of the stubborn black heads on my nose and improved the look of my pores! One of my favourite things about using Freeman beauty clay masks is how it tightens the skin while brightening it at the same time.  Rating: No surprise but t...

 This is a short story about Richard Morrell, Monica’s (exasperated) older brother. It’s not easy being the son of the most corrupt human in Morganville, while also being the brother of the most outrageous, selfish bully. Add to that a real desire to do some good in the world, and help protect his fellow Morganville residents, and you’ve got a man who has a hard day ahead of him. But one thing’s for certain: Richard does love his sister. He knows her flaws, but that doesn’t mean he won’t go to the wall for her … and even compromise his ethics, from time to time. This will be a very bad day to be a criminal in Morganville. This is another one of those short stories that while being just a few pages long still gives us an insight on a character we have yet to have a point of view from. Richard Morrell is one of those characters in Morganville that while human is still on the vampire payroll whether he likes it or not. He might have been born in one of the affluential families in...

 Summary: There's a new extreme sport getting picked up on the bare—knuckle fights pitting captured vampires against each other—or humans. Tracking the remote signal leads Claire—accompanied by her friends and frenemies—to discover that what started as an online brawl will soon threaten everyone in Morganville... This the tenth book in the Morganville series and typically it's around this time where I start questioning just how much more an author can give us before they are stretching out a story that has already been told in its entirety. They already defeated Bishop; Amelie's dad and Mr. Big Bad who practically brought Morganville down to its knees. We thought Amelie did he right thing and killed him but unfortunately revenge makes you do stupid things... I'm surprised with the turn of events in this book. The fact that a fight club was even started and Amelie and her brigade of vampires didn't get involved until the very end was surprising. I can understand her ...

Product Summary:  Skincare made for makeup. This hydrating primer instantly nourishes, plumps and preps skin to improve the look of foundation. It's full makeup prep in one step, blending the performance of a makeup primer with the cushion of a moisturizer. Cost: $95 for 50 ml ***Cruelty free*** This is my first Bobbi Brown product and I am a little conflicted. This product has been hyped for what feels like forever and after using the product myself I can understand why. My dilemma is the price tag. I liked that it was a two in one product but I could never justify keeping something so expensive in my makeup routine when I can buy something a fraction of the cost and it performs just as well.  Rating:  2 stars on 5. I unfortunately cannot seem to get passed the exorbitant price tag. While it does make my skin look lovely other primers can do the same for a lot cheaper of a price tag. I'm going to finish what I have left and will simply just move on.
