4:30 AM Review

4:30 AM
I just finished Finding Hollywood Nobody by Lisa Samson. Why at 4:30 in the blessed AM? I woke up at 3:30 without any reason and was wide-awake. I hat e it when it happens but I get a lot done at this time without parents or other parts of my brain to bother me, however, I get hungry real quick and there’s no way I can fix food without waking the rest of the house.
So…

Hollywood Nobody Book 2
Finding Hollywood Nobody by Lisa Samson is just as awesome as the first book if not more. I am usually frustrated with sequels, feeling like there are too many flashbacks or explanations from the first book or that the characters are so unalike it could be a totally different book all together.
Finding Hollywood Nobody has none of the usual sequel let downs. Scotty is still Scotty (gotta love girls with boy names) and her adventures in Texas are no less exciting than those on the coast. This time Scotty learns a lot about prayer and it is all very realistic, as opposed to the idea of her just getting saved and everything goes great like so many Christian books out there. There are a lot of surprises in book 2 and I expect more to come in Book 3: Romancing Hollywood Nobody.
Lisa Samson has one of the greatest series ever in her wonderful head and I am so happy to have found these books (and to be from the same hometown as where she’s thinking this stuff up, how awesome is that?!).
I’m telling you if you haven’t picked up on these books yet you are totally missing out!!!

I’ll be traveling today, going to see my grandma for a while, so don’t expect my normal multiple posts, at least not until tonight. Hope to come back to some commenting (please?).

Excited

Rave
Just discovered a new band, Inhabited! The cover of LOVE reminded me a ton of a modern day Blondie with the pseudo-hippie chick on the cover and the bold LOVE in 80’s font-style. The songs are very Garbage meets Gwen Stefani meets Christian Rock. I’m Lovin LOVE! Check it out when you can!

I’ve become one of the many going onto Bluefly [ here ] and attempting to win the $10,000 shopping spree. My goal is a pair of Jimmy Choos patent black flat boots that are oh-so-cute and I could never afford them, even on bluefly, without the shopping spree. It’s eating my soul!
I’m just sayin’!

Check out the Post Punk Kitchen! [ here ] They have tons of vegan/vegeterian recipes, a cool web layout, and a THEME SONG! Too cool as far as I’m concerned and I’m dying to try out their vegan ginger ice cream and their chocolate bomb pudding cake (who can not want something with the words chocolate and bomb in it?). Tell me what you all think.

She Who Eats [ blog here ] has some great blog posts and great pics of food. Check her out and tell her Faustina sent you.

So I just found out that Lisa Samson, author of Hollywood Nobody Series live in my hometown (that’s Home1 for those of you keeping track)! So excited!
