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: imPRESS Color Press-On Manicure, Reddy or Not

product review impress color press on manicure reddy or not

Not too long ago, I received a Vox Box from Influenster.com. It included several complimentary goodies for me to try out in exchange for my honest review. One of the items I received for free was imPress Color Press-On Manicure in the color of Reddy or Not. I was very excited to receive this product as I've been on a kick with doing my nails so that they look nice.

I was surprised at how easy the nails were to put on. There were three simple steps to follow. The first step was to clean off my nails with the prep pad that was included in the kit. The second step was to find the press on nail for my fingers and pull the tab off. The third step was to press on the imPress Color nail.

The color and nails look very nice on my fingers, and they are very slim and comfortable. They are attached quite firmly, and I haven't had any pop off yet, which is a nice change. They're also quite natural looking, which surprised me.

There was also no mess or fuss when putting them on and only took approximately five to ten minutes to do. So if you're in a hurry and need your nails done before leaving home, this would be a perfect product for when you're in a rush.

However, I'm not a fan of the square cut of the nails. I'm more of a rounded tip type of girl. The nails are quite long as well, so it makes it a bit difficult for me to type, so I may have to file them down a bit.

I give them five out of five stars despite them being a little too long for my taste. I definitely look forward to trying some of their other colors out.
