Blank Slate Kate by Heather Wardell

I have been a fan of Heather Wardell’s since her first book, and have happily read and reviewed each and every one on Chick Lit Plus. When she contacted me about doing a tour for Blank Slate Kate, I was thrilled. Mainly because I got to read another book. I was super curious about this one, where the main character wakes up in her thirties – but her last memories are from when she is seventeen. Kate – or is her real name Kate? – has lost all her memories from the past fifteen years. She has to try to ...

Hair Care Products from Victoria Secret

While shopping at Victoria Secret one day, I noticed a new section in the store that featured hair care products. I wandered over and saw VS was having an incredible special on the products, so naturally, I bought three. My argument was that I needed hairspray anyway, I’d been wanting to try out a dry shampoo, and my hair stylist told me a detangler might help my hair from falling out so rapidly. Thus, my three products. So Sexy – Style Tame and Smooth Instant Detangler - $14 I use this almost every time I get out of the shower. I think ...

Empire of Light by Gregory Earls

Review written by Sara Palacios Empire of Light by Gregory Earls is an endearing tale of a young, black cinematography student. The story begins with Jason Tisse, taking on the notoriously tough American Film Institute, ruthlessly trying to pave his way through life and closer to his dreams. A chance encounter with the Dean of Cinematography, Howard Edgerton, leads Tisse on a hiatus from the film institute, wondering what to do next. On a whim, he finds himself in Europe, tracking down the infamous works of famed painter Caravaggio for inspiration. Armed with only a vintage Kodak Brownie camera and a ...

5 Stages of Grief by Bethany Ramos

Bethany Ramos is on tour with CLP Blog Tours and 5 Stages of Grief. This book really intrigued me. I thought it was different from a lot of books I have read lately, and I thought the timing in the main character’s life was really interesting. Danielle Starkey gets a disturbing phone call regarding a vacation that her husband booked – with his mistress. Danielle is furious that her husband was cheating on her – past tense because her husband died in a tragic car accident. Danielle doesn’t know what to think about Cherry James (such a mistress name) and ...

Aftertaste by Meredith Mileti

Mira and husband Jake are co-owners to the wildly successful Manhattan Italian restaurant, Grappa, the same location where Mira finds Jake with Grappa’s newest waitress. Mira is shocked at Jake’s infidelity, especially since they ...

Heidi Klum, Seal Seperate

No! No! No! Well, I’m just devastated. Weekend reports were saying that super couple Heidi Klum and Seal were heading for divorce, but I didn’t want to believe it. Now, I guess I have to. They released this joint statement Monday morning: "While we have enjoyed seven very loving, loyal and happy years of marriage, after much soul-searching we have decided to separate. We have had the deepest respect for one another throughout our relationship and continue to love each other very much, but we have grown apart. This is an amicable process and protecting the well-being of our children ...
