I can’t believe it is already May. It seems like just yesterday that it was the first of the year. Lets get right into things that I loved during the month of April. I only have a few this month because I didn’t try many new things and I don’t want to repeat any of them from last month. If you want to check out what liked for the month of March click here and it will take you to last months post.
The first thing I have loved this month are playing games on my phone. I am sure everyone knows that I finally joined the iPhone band wagon and I got an iPhone 5 a few months ago. Since I have had the phone I spend more time playing games on it then actually using it as a phone. Some of my favorite games are: Dream Heights, Tiny Tribe, Castle Story, Family Farm & Paradise Cove.
I also have been loving my Julep Rock Star Hand Cream that I got a couple of months ago in my Julep Maven Box. I love this lotion for many reasons and one of those is that it is small enough to fit in my purse and the smell isn’t overwhelming. I have bigger bottles of lotion at home and at work and yet I still find that I am always using this one. It doesn’t leave my hands greasy or anything like that.
I also have been loving my Belkin iPhone cases. I have the two that are shown above and I can’t get enough of them. They are slim which is a great thing because my other cases are bulky and I don’t use them as much as these two. If you would like to see a post on all of the cases I have for my phone let me know and I will write one.
Those are all of my favorites for last month. I already have a list of things for May so it will be a longer post next month for sure.
It is time for another post about my nails. This time I went with colors that are actually really in style right now. I went with a mint green and gray colors. We also put a feather in the thumb nails just to add something to them. Here are the pictures from this time.
I had a super hard time reading this book. I so badly wanted to like the book because I love a good mystery but I got lost when reading this book. I did enjoy the authors way of talking and how she made me at times feel like I was right there with the characters but I got lost in all the history that is in the book. I really like the characters and the setting of the book. I just found that I was lost while reading the book because I didn’t know any of the history that they were talking about so a lot of the book went over my head.
The newest offering in The Monastery Murders series, AnUnholy Communion (Lion Fiction).
Following the ancient tradition, ordinands from the College of the Transfiguration gather at first light on Ascension morning to sing their praises from the top of the college’s tallest tower. Not one to miss any liturgy, Felicity finds herself swept up in worship as she listens to the timeless words. But her delight quickly turns to horror when a black-robed body hurtles over the precipice and lands at her feet. Her investigative instincts immediately kick in when she sees a double-headed snake emblem clutched in the lifeless hand. Was this suicide? Or murder?

Here is another book review. I am sure you guys are tired of seeing them and to be honest I am tired of writing them. This week I think I have had 5 or 6 of them alone. I promise I am getting to end of my stack of books so the reviews will be slowing down greatly in a month or so. Anyway on to the review.
I had a really hard time getting into this book. I think that was because I haven’t read the other books that were before this one so I felt kind of lost when it came to reading this book. I know when I go and read the other books in the series that it will make more sense. So me having a hard time reading it has more to do with me than the authors writing. I love the authors writing and all the details she puts into her books. I really liked Rosie and I loved how it all worked out in the end. I love to read books that work out great and this one is for sure one them. I spent the whole book hoping that things would turn out good for Rosie so when they did it was the perfect ending to the book.
When her country needs her, will she have the courage to surrender her glittering world and her one true love?
The golden age of Hollywood is in the business of creating stars. Rosie Worth, now starlet Roxy Price, has found everything she’s wanted in the glamour of the silver screen. With adoring fans and a studio-mogul husband, she’s finally silenced the voices-and grief-of the past. Her future shines bright…until the fated Black Friday when it all comes crashing down. When Roxy loses everything, she finds herself disgraced and penniless. Her only hope is to join forces with Belgian duke Rolfe Van Horne, a longtime film investor. But Rolfe is not who he seems, and he has other plans for Roxy and her movies-plans to support a growing unrest in Europe, plans that could break her heart and endanger her life.
