Book Review: The Writer by James Patterson and J.D. Barker

The Writer by James Patterson and J.D. Barker  was published on March 17, 2025. It opens with Detective Declan Shaw at a closed subway station trying to work up the nerve to commit suicide when he receives a call from his partner about a break in and homicide at the home of a true crime author. Shaw makes his way to the crime scene to work the case, and in a turn of events, Declan comes under scrutiny in another case loosely connected to this new case. I received an Advanced Readers Copy (ARC) of The Writer  from NetGalley and Little , Brown, and Company for free in exchange for my honest review. I'm appreciative that my request for this book was approved. With this story opening with the main character trying to commit suicide, I almost didn't go any further with the book. However, I am glad I stuck with it as it took me on a fantastic ride and had my emotions all over the place. There were so many twists and turns that just when I thought I had it all figured out, there was ...

Product Review: Morgan Taylor Professional Nail Lacquer, Go For The Glow

product review morgan taylor nail lacquer

Morgan Taylor Professional Nail Lacquer is a great product that I discovered at Sally Beauty Supply when the sales clerk mentioned that it was buy one get one free. I purchased two bottles of the nail polish to try out. Recently, I ordered two bottles of Morgan Taylor Professional Nail Lacquer online on Amazon.com. One of those colors is Go for the Glow.

It arrived last Friday, and I decided to try it out that night. As I started to paint my nails, I noticed the nail polish was a lot thinner than the ones I purchased from Sally Beauty Supply. I also noticed that it was a bit streaky, so it did take four coats for it to look like it should. However, each coat seemed to dry quickly, which was a plus in my book. It actually took my base coat and top coat longer to dry than the actual nail polish.

product review Morgan Taylor Professional Nail Lacquer

With that being said, I did a lot more cleaning over the weekend . . . dusting, dishes, sweeping, mopping, etc., and I found that the nail polish started wearing off a lot quicker. By the end of the night on Sunday, the nail polish had chipped off one of my nails. So, it was time to take the polish off and repaint my nails yet again.

I think that if I hadn't done so much house work, or at least worn gloves as I was doing it, that it would have held up much better. Even with all the negatives, it won't keep me from buying this brand again as I love the color, and it normally holds up much better than it did.

Five out of five stars is what I ranked Morgan Taylor Professional Nail Lacquer, Go For The Glow. I love the fact the color looked the same on my nails as it did in the bottle and online. I can't wait to try out even more of the colors they offer.
