SARAH dessen

for the past 3 years i have been reading religiously all books by author SARAH DESSEN. i dated through the summer with Remy in THIS LULLABY. hid all secrets and told only the truth with Annabel in JUST LISTEN. and ran away from the past and into love with Macy in TRUTH ABOUT FOREVER. Sarah has managed to take the characters and highlight their lives so beautifully while making sure that their next door neighbor is the main character in another one of her books. everyone lives in the same small town and hangs out at the same clubs.

I'm just about to finish reading, for the 4th time, THIS LULLABY. this book was a stretch for DESSEN. saying that while she and her usual characters were always very shy and watching life from the sidelines, Remy was loud and took control. not knowing exactly how she could make this character she just went with it and out came cold, hard hearted Remy (until she found love, of course!) Remy's mother had taken marriage and turned it into a hobby while she stood back and decided love didn't exist. throughout the story Remy learns that with love "sometimes, you just have to close your eyes, and jump." and that she did.

if you happen to be strolling by Barnes&Noble pick up her latest novel, LOCK AND KEY.it will not disappoint!

sex&thecity

the moment we've all been anticipating for 4 long, miserable years has finally arrived! the
ladies of SEX AND THE CITY have returned for a movie and its better than the TV show. the
story line is beyond amazing. CARRY has a marriage surprise. CHARLOTTE gets exactly what shes been dreaming of. MIRANDA learns love is worth forgiving. SAMANTHA is wiser than ever. you'll definitely laugh, cry, hate and love all at the same time.

the fashion is obviously amazing as well. the wonderful mind of PATRICIA FEILD went
straight to work on this project making sure each character had a new look for their
individual personality while still keeping true to the style we all have grown to know and love.

and don't forget those Manolo's! the shoes have become a character in their own right with the famous CARRY BRADSHAW line "hello lover" while staring at a gorgeous pair of Manolo Blahniks.a few of those beautifully handcrafted masterpieces made their way onto the big screen and did not disappoint.

the women of mcallen, texas definitely surprised me at the midnight showing of this fabulous movie. decked out in beautiful gowns and amazing hair styles, women with friends came to watch friends.

definitely not a movie to miss. perfect for a girls night out!
