Jennifer is now a proud member of the VIPers - the Melanie's Muses Spotlight Feature Team!These books turned movies have been around for a long time. They are probably everybody’s first books, or at least one of their first. I remember even getting these at my old school book fairs as well, and those books/movies are none other than Dr Seuss. I think he’s the first one that I read when I was learning all about poems in grade school. He has surpassed generations and honestly I’m not surprised by that. He’s pretty awesome and so are the movies based from his books. They also seem to always have a hidden lesson in them as well. I mean look at the Lorax, they got rid of trees and looked what happened. I’m not saying that’s all that it’s about because it’s not, but it is definitely in there. I think my favorite Dr Seuss book and movie has too be the Grinch and Jim Carrey’s portrayal of the grinch. Spot on! It instantly became a Christmas classic. I’m definitely sure you’ve heard of this awesome children’s book writer, so do you have a favorite book or even movie adaptation from the loveable Dr Seuss.

Blurb About The Book (As appears on Amazon) Betrayal is a dish served best with revenge… Raven Cassidy should have known better. She should never have believed that the angels would stay true to their word even if she held up her end of the bargain. Having let herself forget that these monsters were her enemies, and getting too close behind enemy lines, Raven is now focused on payback, and not even the Imperium’s Commander of the League of Dominious can stand in her way. But the Citadel isn’t the safest place for a human, even one with angelic DNA. There are skeletons lurking at every corner, and an Imperium who could demand her head in a heartbeat if she knew the secrets that Raven was hiding. Fighting a war on all sides, with a long list of people that want to see Raven dead still might be easier than fighting whatever the hell is between her and Nathaniel. Whatever happens, one thing is absolute; Raven is a Rebel and it’s time everyone found out the lengths she is willing to go to prove it. Now For The Review Standalone or series? Book 2 in the Wings of Deceit Series (Cannot be read as a standalone) How did I get this book? Because I am lucky enough to get first read through on ALL Susan's books Why did I choose to read this book: Because I will literally read anything with Susan's name on it! Genre Dystopian And Now To The Review! First Impressions: As with most of Susan's books, the first installment had ended on a cliffhanger. This book picks up right where we left off and is even easier to get into because you already know the world! General Review This series isn't something that I would normally even have on my radar what with it being Angels (even though the bad guys are the Angels in this one which helps), and it's Dystopian (another one of my not favorite genres) but this series is a great read. Of course, I am rather partial to the Imperium, although if she did all I wanted then it would be a very short series. Final Thoughts Ask I have come to expect with Susan's series book 2 does end with a cliffhanger, and I imagine with a 5 book series that books 3 and 4 probably will too. At least book 3 is up for pre-order and is releasing in August so it's not too long of a wait. Rating: 5 Stars and now the wait for book 3 begins!

She loves TV (especially things that make you smile), Doctor Who, Finding new shows, and regularly provides awesome fandom items for Muser Giveaways. Jennifer is now a proud member of the VIPers - the Melanie's Muses Spotlight Feature Team!This movie was actually a staple of my childhood and since then it’s been turned into a Broadway play, and a newer version that just came out based on the Broadway play. You follow me, so far? So technically it’s not a remake remake, and if you hadn't guessed that movie is “Mean Girls”. I love this movie because it reminds us that you shouldn’t have to ever change for anybody, especially a boy. Yes it’s also a revenge type story which is actually kind of interesting. Unpopular kids want to bring down the popular girls, or in this movie “the plastics". They use a brand new girl to do it, which doesn’t really turn out the way that they planned. Cady ends up joining the plastics but everything turns upside down especially when a burn book is released. This movie is fun and family friendly. If you haven’t seen this version but you want to see the newer one, then I highly suggest watching this one first. The Pineapple Code Word For This Article Is Pink And Now For The Giveaway Melanie's Muses will be giving away the Mean Girls dvd from Jenn and a pink tourmaline Lipsense, a selection of glosses, a cat ears headband, and some silver hair tinsel from the Melanie's Muses prize hoard.

Blurb About The Book Shadowvale isn’t your typical small town America. The sun never shines, the gates decide who enters, magic abounds, and every resident bears some kind of curse. Lexi Gardner is a rare creature with a nearly unlimited supply of magic. Unfortunately, that magic has gotten a little low. That’s all right. She’s come to Shadowvale for a refill and thanks to an impending magical event, getting all the magic she requires shouldn’t be a problem. Until she crosses paths with someone who greatly needs her help. A man trapped in the forest. A man no one wanted anything to do with. A man considered by most to be a curse. Lexi, however, sees beyond his past. She sees him for who he is now. And who he could become. The only problem is saving this handsome mountain of a man will take more magic than she has. In fact, it’ll take all the magic she can get her hands on. Seems a small price to pay for his company, however. She vows to help him if he’ll help her in return, something he’s glad to do. But he has his own issues to deal with. As do most people in town. Like Amelia Marchand, the witch who created Shadowvale. Will Lexi be able to help Amelia and her new friend while securing the magic she desperately wants? Because a life without magic won’t be any kind of life at all. Unless love turns out to be all the magic she needs… Now For The Review
Standalone or series? Book 7 in a series (With most Shadowvale books you can jump in as standalones but this one links VERY much to book 6, and provides info on some events that have been ongoing that would make a lot more sense if you read books 1,2, and 6. (Books 3, 4, and 5 work well as standalones in my opinion.) How did I get this book? I am lucky enough to Kristen's alpha reader. Why did I choose to read this book: Because I will literally read anything with Kristen's name attached! Genre Urban Fantasy (light) And Now To The Review! First Impressions: In book 6 I was very blindsided by what happened so I was excited when I realized that this was going to follow up on those events! General Review As This is another unique story with yet another new paranormal creature. Seriously I don't know how she keeps coming up with brand news ones but she does! We get to follow up on events from not just book 6, but issues that have been pretty ongoing throughout the series which I wasn't expecting but defintiely appreciated. Final Thoughts I loved this story. I may have a bias because I was so blindsided with book 6, and this felt like order had been restored in my version of Shadowvale (you know the one that lives in my head with 100% my plans for the characters, which doesn't always line up with where the story goes). A great installment and I am, as always, excited to see what happens in Shadowvale next! Rating: 5 Stars! I am very happy that this story is now out there!

Jennifer is now a proud member of the VIPers - the Melanie's Muses Spotlight Feature Team!This movie is such a great family friendly movie that I really haven’t seen in ages and that movie is “Matilda”. It was also remade by Netflix, but honestly I’d just stick with the original. “Matilda” is basically about a little girl that’s ignored by her family, she ends up being very special though. Not just book smart special but magical special as well. Going to school, she ends up finding herself in ways that she couldn’t even imagine, and maybe get a new family along the way. This classic is definitely not one to be missed. It is older so some of you may have seen it, but if you haven’t I definitely suggest you remedy that immediately.
