Book Review: Ghostly Getaway (Diary of an Accidental Witch, #6) by Perdita Cargill and Honor Cargill

Image
Ghostly Getaway (Diary of an Accidental Witch, #6)  by Perdita Cargill and Honor Cargill is a children's book published on February 11, 2025. It opens with Bea and her fellow classmates on a school trip to Cadabra Castle where there are lots of activities that require teamwork. During the night, they hear lots of strange noises. Ghosts don't exist, right? A big thank you to NetGalley and Tiger Tales for approving my request for a copy. I received an Advanced Readers Copy (ARC) for free in exchange for my honest review. The story is told in format of a diary of a sixth grade student who just happens to be a witch. This latest edition can be read as a stand alone book and is super cute. It's very similar to The Worst Witch  series by Jill Murphy. Despite not being the target audience, I enjoyed the story and was engaged with it from the beginning. Parts of it reminded me of when I was a kid and went to Girl Scout camp as well as Rock Eagle. It's definitely a book that...

Product Review: Pureology Professional Color Care Strength Cure Shampoo

I received Pureology Professional Color Care Strength Cure Shampoo from Influenster.com and Pureology for free in exchange for my honest review. When I received the news that I was receiving this product, I was ecstatic because my hair was over processed and breaking off from having it colored incorrectly and then being corrected.  This Pureology Professional Color Care Strength Cure Shampoo has a light, clean scent. It's very gentle on my hair, and it made my hair feel thicker and stronger. Another plus is that as I washed my hair with it, my hair didn't get tangled. After using this product for a month and a half, my hair looks so much better, and it's nice that my hair actually feels like hair again instead of hay. This is something I would definitely buy if I have issues with my hair being over processed again, and I don't have any complaints. However, the one thing you should be aware of is that this product is a bit pricey, so I don't want you to have sticker ...

Book Review: Trick or Treat Murder (A Lucy Stone Mystery, #3) by Leslie Meier

Trick or Treat Murder (A Lucy Stone Mystery, #3) by Leslie Meier is set in Tinker's Cove, Maine, and the entire town is preparing a party in a dilapidated mansion to celebrate Halloween. However, everyone is on edge because there has been a rash of fires thought to be the work of an arsonist. The latest one killing a summer resident. Who will be the latest victim? Is anyone else a fan of Halloween like I am? This was the perfect book to put me in the mood for the holiday, and this is a must read if you do like Halloween. It brought back so many memories of my childhood of trick or treating and the Halloween parties that my parents and the rest of the parents in the neighborhood put on for us kids that were similar to the one in Trick or Treat Murder . Having an arsonist setting fires in the book only made it creepier, but not scary. There were quite a few red herrings in the book. With that being said, there were clues to who it really was, and I dismissed those clues much to my c...
