Reading the bible

January 8th, 2008 |

So I’ve added yet another book to my library. Of course this one is the holiest of all as it’s the new revised standard version of the Holy Bible.

You might be thinking why did I buy one? Well, I noticed that I didn’t own a copy myself that I could call my own. The bibles in our house either belonged to my parents or my older sister. I wanted one for myself, so I ended up buying one.

I even ended up taking photos of the bible. You can see them below.

Montel Williams - Living Well

January 1st, 2008 |

One of my favourite talk show hosts, Montel Williams, has a new book that is coming out. It’s called Living Well. This book is suppose to be really good if you want to change your life and live well. I’m looking forward to getting my own copy of it soon when I purchase some books this month. It costs less than $20 which is absolutely great!!

So when do you purchase new books? Do you purchase them right away or do you wait awhile? I personally read about books I’m interested. Then write them down. Then I purchase books in a bundle at least once a month.

So say I have five new books I want, I’ll wait until the middle of the month or the week after to purchase them all at once. That way I have them whenever I want to read instead of having to wait awhile to get them. I find this method a lot better than buying books one at a time whenever they are released.

Review: Blonde Ambition by Rita Cosby

November 20th, 2007 |

I read this book about a month ago, and I must say it was fabulous!! It gave a great insight in the life of one of Hollywood’s most famous women, Anna Nicole Smith.

I first heard about the book when they were doing a segment on Anna Nicole Smith on the Montel Williams show. Rita Cosby promoted her book and gave some shocking details on the show. She made quite the impression because after watching the show, I quickly went to Amazon.ca and purchased a copy. I’m glad I did!

I never really understood what Anna Nicole Smith’s life was about. The only thing I knew about her was that she was a playboy bunny once, then got fat, and then she suddenly got very skinny. I didn’t know about her love life, family life, and her personal problems. Who knew that finding all this information would actually be entertaining?

When I got the book, I read it from front to back over the weekend. It really was that interesting especially when it talked about Daniel’s death (Anna’s son). Then the information about Howard and Larry being gay lovers really made me laugh. Then sadly, near the end, where it talked about the events that lead up to Anna’s death.

After reading the entire book, I do think that Howard played a primary role in her death. Anyone who reads the book can clearly come to that point. There is just so much shocking information in the book that I suggest everyone go out and get a copy of it even if you aren’t a fan of Anna’s. It will really answer lots of questions you have from all the media coverage you saw on the news.

5/5 stars

I’m already falling behind in updating this blog. Sorry…I’ve been really really busy and my nephew was born just the other day. So it’s been kind of hectic at my house and I haven’t had the opportunity to come online much.

whattoexpect.jpgTalking over with my sister, she mentioned that she was glad she had purchased a book in the beginning of her pregnancy that helped her understand what her body was doing throughout the pregnancy. This book is by far one of the best and most popular books that pregnant women turn to.

What’s the title? It’s “What to Expect When You’re Expecting” by Heidi Murkoff. So if you or anyone you know is expecting a child right now, this book is a must have!! What perfect timing to give this book as a gift because Christmas is shortly approaching.

Welcome!

Welcome to one of my newest blog in my huge blog empire that I have established. I bought this domain awhile ago and haven’t put it to use yet. Once I ran through all the ideas in my head as to what I want this blog to resemble, I came to one answer. This blog will house my reviews on books I have read, am currently reading, or other books I plan to purchase.

I am big fan of books and buy them almost every week. My favourite author is none other than Sylvia Browne. I know many people have their different opinions of her. I have mine as well. I don’t believe everything she says to be true, but I do admire her work and enjoy reading her books.

So keep on the lookout for more updates coming soon.
