(This is a book review. I can't locate the categories for book reviews.)
Old diaries, old letters, what the best movie kiss meant to you, searching for love in all the wrong places, Roman Polanski, the physical indignity of aging & so much more in this memoir. Teens of the 80s and 90s, you'll know.
But all that crying?....

I received this 8 piece gift set and have been using the lotion, cream & body butter regularly. I like how everything is purple. It contains body butter, 2 hand creams, body lotion, soap, body wash, body spray and bath salt. The PINK PEPPERCORN & FIG scent is sweet, not subtle, and lingers. As it was a gift, & I couldn't find this particular set online, I don't know how much it costs, but gift sets like these tend to be a good value. -
L.A.Colors Color Craze, Craze
I'm using this multicolored confetti top coat, and it does it's job quite well. It's shiny, and looks good over white or dark nails. Often these bits of flecks top coats are very difficult to remove, but this one wasn't. Sometimes the results can... +
I'm using this multicolored confetti top coat, and it does it's job quite well. It's shiny, and looks good over white or dark nails. Often these bits of flecks top coats are very difficult to remove, but this one wasn't. Sometimes the results can be disappointing too, not what you expect, not how it looks in the bottle, but not Craze. Plus, it's sold at dollar stores, so the price is right. -
Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Frizz Control Deep Treatment

Garnier has some decent quality affordable products that actually work, and this one has become my go-to this year. The rich cream is for frizzy dry hair & contains the popular argan oil and apricot. I actually didn't realize it's a deep conditioner, I've been using it as a styling product, after I've washed & conditioned my hair. Not much is needed if using as a styling cream. (I would put on too much, which leaves my hair not greasy, but coated, almost limp.) I like sort of wet look it gives. Maybe I'll try it as it's intended use. ;-) -
Kit Kat Orange
I'm a Kit Kat fan, but the original, Chunky is my fave. I tried the orange and white & milk when I spotted them reduced, and was more impressed with the orange. Surprising bc I'm not much of an orange with chocolate fan. But I liked the orange... +
I'm a Kit Kat fan, but the original, Chunky is my fave. I tried the orange and white & milk when I spotted them reduced, and was more impressed with the orange. Surprising bc I'm not much of an orange with chocolate fan. But I liked the orange essence, mixed well with Kit Kat chocolate, & would buy it again. -
Astro Yogourt Chai Latte

I had been waiting to try this new (limited edition) flavour of Astro, being such a fan of their other unique newer ones. The chai is subtle, not strong enough for my taste. I was hoping it'd be like the cappuccino, which is my fave. Perhaps would be good in baking, or as a parfait. -
a dogs purpose
I'm a (crazy) cat lady, but this movie got me all choked up. How could it not, the dog was so endearing, all his lives, and his owner's were interesting. A must see for all animal lovers, and if you aren't, you're bound to be after watching it.

Samsung Galaxy S III Mini
The main thing I use a phone for is the camera for IG, but this one is quite disappointing. The pictures are never clear enough, no matter what lighting situation it is. The filters can't help. Call quality isn't always good. It's many years old... +
The main thing I use a phone for is the camera for IG, but this one is quite disappointing. The pictures are never clear enough, no matter what lighting situation it is. The filters can't help. Call quality isn't always good. It's many years old, and there have been newer versions, so unless you get this free, I wouldn't bother. -
Silkience Ovation hand soap

Spotted this Refreshing mojito scent at a Dollar Tree, I liked the scent, and it does what a hand soap should do, it cleans well. It's more of a gel than liquid, and there's plenty of lather. Described as a light citrus scent, it does indeed smell like a minty mojito. I'd try the other scents. -
Air Wick Pure
I used 2 mail in rebates to get Sunset Cotton and Ocean Breeze free. I prefer Sunset Cotton, it's a lighter scent that I like lingering in the air. Ocean Breeze is quite nice too, a bit stronger.
