Partial Book Review: Grave Surprises

Hello good day and good morrow to you. How are you on this wonderful night? Not blue I hope. Today is a good day. It is a good day for many reasons. Today I watched a movie with my brother, I spend some time exercising and then I drew a picture using colour pencils. Its the first time I have ever sketched something with that, usually I just use pencils so I am very proud of the way it turned out. I'll get my brother to scan the picture so I can add it at the bottom of this post.
Today I would like to talk about this book I'm reading called 'Grave Surprise'.It is written by Charlaine Harris who is also the writer of the 'Sookie Stackhouse' books or 'True Blood' for those of you familiar with the t.v. series.
Grave Surprise introduces the world to Harper Connelly a girl who was hit by lightening one day when she was washing her hair. One of the many side effects is that one of her legs is not as strong as it used to be and she has to exercise it every now and then. The most interesting and notable of the side effects is her new found ability to stand on a person's grave and tell you how they had died. This power to connect with corpses is a new one to me. This is the first time I have read or seen something that has that power and the way its written is really well done.
What is also great to mention is that it turns into a mystery when she finds the body of this little girl she had previously tried to help find months ago in a old grave in a cemetery, in a different state.
Things get a little more heated up when she and her brother (not by blood) find out that the family now lives in the state that the body was found in. Worst yet they find yet another body that was put in the open grave after the police moved the girl's and the orginal occupant's body. This body is fresh and is the man who invited them to come to the cemetery in the first place.
Now it seems that the key to getting them out of this mess and away from being suspects is to find out who killed both the little girl and the man. I'll tell you what happens when I'm done, I'm almost there. =)
Words of advice: Sometimes things are not what they may seem to be. When you take closer look or look at it from a different angle you just might start to understand it better.
Ciao for now and Auf Wiedersehen! Love and Laters!
P.S. I'll tell you what I think when I have finished those last few chapters.=)

BTS SEX SCANDAL???

So I may be late to this because this happened last year but I just discovered this picture. So Apparently Jin from BTS was showing a tutorial or something like that and fans saw in the background a condom and freaked.....OMG I don't know where to start with this but its so ridiculous that I had to say something about it. As a result of fans(??) freaking out that their idols possibly having sex Big Hit Entertainment-the company behind the band- released a statement saying that it was given to them in a fan gift. FIRSTLY who cares if they are having sex or not. These people deserve to have a private life too!! Hey if anything at least it looks like they are being safe about it. Secondly you guys know how crazy fans can get especially KPOP fans so I wouldn't be surprised if a fan did send it. Plus fans probably have sent much worse things. That fan probably sent it and said something like, "Wear this when we meet." Or some other weird creepy thing like that. People i...

Love Sick (the Series and Novel)

Noh needs to somehow come up with the money for the drums for his school club. Phun (who already has a girlfriend) needs someone to pretend to be his boyfriend so his sister (who is really into boy love) will convince his father not to make him go out with his friend’s daughter. Realizing that they could help each other, Noh and Phun make a deal that spiral into a series of events that bring the two boys closer together. The plot goes much deeper than that though and lots of time is spent in the novel developing the characters. We also learn more about the people who the main characters interact with on a daily basis. Love Sick the Series is a 2014 Thai series that is based on the quite popular online Thai novel written by INDRYTIMES . The novel appropriately named; ‘Love Sick: The Chaotic Lives of Blue Shorts Guys’, follows the story of two high school boys who eventually fall in love. The series takes a step away from the novel adding additional characters and plotlines to the sto...

Kpop Meets Black Women (tumblr) Review

It’s not very easy being an international Kpop fan - especially if you are a person of colour. The reason for this, I am honestly not sure. I wonder if it is because Kpop exists outside of the stereotyped idea of what persons of colour are supposed to like. For some time now I’ve noticed that it’s especially worse when you're black. One such site that explores the intersection between Kpop fans and black people - specifically black women - is Kpop Meets Black Women . Now I’ve checked out this site a few times and there are lots of things here that you find on a typical fan website, regardless of what or who said website is dedicated too. With that said I have noticed that this site gets loads of negative attention for being what it is. That is why I have decided to review it, like I would anything else. It took me a while to put together because I have some strong opinions on this particular website and the amount of hate it receives on a regular basis. With that being said, I ho...
