Claire, Darling by Callie Kazumi  was published on March 11, 2025 by Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine / Bantam. It opens with Claire finding out that her fiancé, Noah, isn't working where he said he was and is now ghosting her. Claire must find out why. Book Review: Claire, Darling by Callie Kazumi Thank you to NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine / Bantam for providing me with an Advanced Readers Copy (ARC) of Claire Darling by Callie Kazumi for free in exchange for my honest review. I was absolutely thrilled when my request for a copy was approved because the synopsis was so good. From the beginning, I absolutely loved the main character of Claire and her work friend named Sukhi. Throughout the novel, we learn about Claire's past and how terrible her mother was towards her. I kept hoping that somehow we would learn who Claire's father was and would eventually connect with him. It's really no wonder Claire had no self confidence as an ad...

Product Review: Dove Go Fresh Advanced Care Apple & White Tea Antiperspirant Deodorant Stick

In December, I received my second VoxBox from Influenster.com. The product I received was the Dove Go Fresh Advanced Care Apple and White Tea Antiperspirant Deodorant Stick from Influenster.com for free for me to test and give my honest review of the product.

When I heard that the scent of the Dove Go Fresh Advanced Care Antiperspirant Deodorant Stick was Apple and White Tea, I thought that the scent would either be a phenomenal fragrance or smell like something an old lady would wear (or like bug spray). 

So, when I opened up the deodorant for the first time and sniffed it, I was pleasantly surprised. The apple scent is very pungent, so I hardly noticed the white tea scent. The only drawback is that it is a bit overpowering when you first put it on, so it might not be good for those who have allergies to fragrances. I'm not sure how I feel about smelling like apples when I sweat though. Although, it's definitely better to smell like apples than emit body odor.
Something that is a plus is that it definitely keeps me dry. My shirts don't show that sweaty underarm wetness when I lift my arms up. The downfall is that the deodorant really cakes onto my clothes, and it is difficult to get it off in the wash. Maybe I'm putting on too much deodorant? Another drawback is that it's difficult to get the lid off of the deodorant, so if you have arthritis, you would really have trouble opening it.

Normally, I have an allergic reaction to deodorant that has a scent in it and get a huge rash that itches like crazy. With the Dove Go Fresh Advanced Care Antiperspirant Deodorant Stick in Apple & White Tea, I haven't had that problem so far. Overall, I'd give this product 4 out of 5 stars.
