Resurgent Shadows

One day life is grand.  The very next day something unpredictable and unimaginable happens.  What would you do if it were you?  Would you stay and fight or would you hide?  These are the questions the characters ask themselves as their adventures take shake shape.  This is the first book in the Successive Harmony series.

There are several mystical creatures, but they have very real human characteristics.  There are a few I would love to know.  My favorite character is Sigvid.  He reminds me of myself sometimes.  He does not take any lip from anyone, but shows how he cares in a very subtle way.  My favorite part of the book is when the baby white dragon was about to be born.  Its dad went to find her rider.  Cannot say what happens, but it is awesome.  I actually laughed out loud when the Dvengers interacted with a flashlight.  Sounds silly I know but it was funny.  There were parts in the story where I could feel the pain from one of the main characters.  At first it was a little confusing.  There is a small backstory but some elements of what happened are missing until you read more of the book.  I can honestly say I did not see the end of Chapter 2 coming.  Once you think you have the story line where you think you know what will happen next, there is a twist.  It flows wonderfully to keep you reading though.

This book reminds me of the Lord of the Rings and Resident Evil.  If you like these types then you will enjoy this one.  I would recommend this for young teens to adults.  I kind of wish the ending was different but being a cliffhanger just makes me wish the second book was out.  I cannot wait to see what the second book is like, if there is a second book.

Synopsis:

Humanity stands on the brink of utter annihilation. Dragons fill the skies.

Ever since the Breaking, when earthquakes tore the world apart and unleashed the nightmares of myth and legend, humankind has struggled for survival.

Caleb is one of the survivors, and the only thing he cares about is getting revenge on the monsters that killed his wife and son. When he saves the life of a dverger--a mythic dwarf-like creature--Caleb discovers that the Breaking may have brought good to the world along with the evil.

On the other side of the country, Eric leads a small group of survivors in relative prosperity until a powerful war hammer is forced into his hands--a weapon with a will of its own so commanding that it sends Eric on a mission with one purpose: destroy the creatures that threaten his home.

Caleb and Eric must each decide to do something no one has dared before: to hunt the Dragonlords.

LED Tactical Torch Flashlight

I live in the country, we use flashlights all the time.  From checking on the animals when the sun isn’t up to lighting a room when we lose electricity.  I have lanterns, but I am afraid my house will catch on fire.  A multipurpose flashlight could be an excellent addition to any toolbox or camping bag.

This flashlight has a lot of interesting features.  If you’re a mechanic you can pull the top all the way up and the light is very narrow.  This way the light is not reflecting on every surface.  My husband showed me a neat trick several years ago.  If you have white ceilings then you just point the light there and it will reflect ceiling will reflect the light.  LED flashlights are best for this as they are brighter than normal flashlights.  With this one you can choose between high to low.  It also has a strobe feature.  The one I like the best since we do a lot of camping and hunting is the SOS feature.  I checked this out and it is perfect.  You do not have to do anything except click to the SOS and wait.  The only thing is I wish they had one in black.

The flashlight is $29.99 but is on sale for $12.99.  I have been carrying this since I got it and my kids ask for this one when they need to go outside.  It is small but bright.  I would recommend this for anyone but especially if you’re a camper or hunter.  For those of you with a go bag I would highly recommend this.  The SOS feature itself makes it worth the money.

Silicone Ice Cube Tray-4 Cubes

I love these big ice cubes.  I put three cubes in a glass and it took about three hours to completely melt.  That was at least three drinks that weren’t watered down.  These hold about 8 tablespoons or almost half a cup.  Would make great baby food cubes, much better than the smaller trays.  You don’t lose ice on the floor with these either.  Just simply push up and out they come.  I already have plans on making Halloween ice cubes.  A candy spider or eyeball would look awesome at a party.

Product Description:

• ✔ HIGHEST QUALITY TRAY MAKES 4 CUBES - Unique 2 color tray is made with BPA-free FDA-approved silicone & high quality steel & lets you make slow melting 2 inch ice cubes.
• ✔ SPILL-RESISTANT EMBEDDED STEEL ICE TRAY - Each mold has an embedded steel rims that offers stability & prevents spills. Simply fill it with water & place in the freezer with no flimsiness.
• ✔ MAKE PERFECT SIZED CUBES - Unlike most silicone ice cube trays Superb Cube has individual flat cube compartments which make perfect ice cubes.
• ✔ EASY ICE REMOVAL WITH EZ RELEASE - Each cube compartment is separate from each other so you can easily push each cube from the bottom. No need for awkward bending & twisting.
• ✔ NOT JUST FOR ICE CUBES - Use it to freeze juices, coffee, teas, stocks, soups, & more. Or bake goods in the oven (safe up to 220°C / 428°F). The only limit is your imagination :)

Silicone Ice Cube Tray-9 Cubes

I love how I no longer lose ice on the floor because all you have to do is push up instead of twist the trays.  Each slot holds a little over 2 tablespoons, it felt like to me that it took a little longer to freeze but I think I was a little excited to see how they came out.  They can stake on top of each other so it saves room in the freezer.  This makes perfect squares so when they are out of the trays, whatever you put them in they stack up nicely.  So many different things you can do with these besides ice.

Product Description:

• ✔ HIGHEST QUALITY TRAY MAKES 9 CUBES - Unique 2 color tray is made with BPA-free FDA-approved silicone & high quality steel & lets you make slow melting 1.4 inch ice cubes.
• ✔ SPILL-RESISTANT EMBEDDED STEEL ICE TRAY - Each mold has an embedded steel rims that offers stability & prevents spills. Simply fill it with water & place in the freezer with no flimsiness.
• ✔ MAKE PERFECT SIZED CUBES - Unlike most silicone ice cube trays Superb Cube has individual flat cube compartments which make perfect ice cubes.
• ✔ EASY ICE REMOVAL WITH EZ RELEASE - Each cube compartment is separate from each other so you can easily push each cube from the bottom. No need for awkward bending & twisting.
• ✔ NOT JUST FOR ICE CUBES - Use it to freeze juices, coffee, teas, stocks, soups, & more. Or bake goods in the oven (safe up to 220°C / 428°F). The only limit is your imagination :)

The Sorcery Code

The Sorcery Code by Dima Zales is set back in the day when kings rule and the gifted are the higher class.  Some serious mathematics is the key to the higher class and some try everything in their power to keep it that way.  While others just want to help.  This is the first book in the series followed by The Spell Realm.

My favorite character would have to be Gala.  She is new to a strange place and is just trying to figure out where she fits in.  She is very compassionate but learns quickly that gets her unwanted attention.  Along with this I have a least favorite, Auguasta.  She judges this by only seeing half of the information.  Always sees the bad first and doesn’t stop to consider the good.  The characters all seem real, like they could actually exist somewhere.  I’m sure everyone wished at some point that they could do magic.

You never knew exactly what Gala would do next, she wasn’t that predictable.  My favorite part of the book is the big battle.  It was hard not to be scared and relieved at almost the same time.  I can’t say whether I laughed or cried during the book, but there were plenty of times I was scared for Gala.

I had to literally tell myself that I couldn’t read during the day, I had things that were piling up.  When I read at night I fought sleep so I could see what happened next.  Never worked, fell asleep with my reader still in my hand.

This was a very good book, even if I did lose a little sleep.  I can’t wait to read The Spell Realm.  If you like urban fantasy they you will love this book.  I would suggest this book for older teenagers and up.  I honestly can’t compare this to another book or series, haven’t read anything quite like this before.

Synopsis:

From a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author comes a captivating tale of intrigue, love, and danger in a world where sorcery is entwined with science . . . 

Once a respected member of the Sorcerer Council and now an outcast, Blaise has spent the last year of his life working on a special magical object. The goal is to allow anyone to do magic, not just the sorcerer elite. The outcome of his quest is unlike anything he could’ve ever imagined – because, instead of an object, he creates Her. 

She is Gala, and she is anything but inanimate. Born in the Spell Realm, she is beautiful and highly intelligent – and nobody knows what she’s capable of. She will do anything to experience the world . . . even leave the man she is beginning to fall for. 

Augusta, a powerful sorceress and Blaise’s former fiancée, sees Blaise’s deed as the ultimate hubris and Gala as an abomination that must be destroyed. In her quest to save the human race, Augusta will forge new alliances, becoming tangled in a web of intrigue that stretches further than any of them suspect. She may even have to turn to her new lover Barson, a ruthless warrior who might have an agenda of his own . . .

Thyroid Rite Supplement

People do not understand what it is like to have a thyroid condition.  Well unless you go through it yourself.  I have what is called Hoshimoto’s Thyroiditis.  Basically it means that my body is attacking my thyroid and it will eventually stop working.  I saw a show where a doctor said it is better to take natural supplements.  So I decided to try Thyroid Rite.

I have the hardest time trying to stay awake.  I lose energy fast.  For example I think of the things I need to do and I have no energy to complete the tasks.  This supplement has 100 mcg of B12, which is supposed to help you stay awake and give you energy.  That is the only ingredient that I know what it does.  As much as I want to say I only have to take these now, I cannot.  My thyroid is too far gone to just rely on natural supplements. 

As always, when taking supplements check with your doctor first.  Thyroid Rite is $35 but is on sale for $13.95.  I recommend this for someone that is just starting to have problems with their thyroid.  I really suggest talking to your doctor as these types of supplements could affect your thyroid checkups.
