Do Granola Bars Have Peanut Oil

Kirby Crow: Scarlet and the White Wolf (Scarlet and the White Wolf 1)

Scarlet and the White Wolf

Genre: m / m (yaoi / slash original in book form); Fantasy

Content:

order to feed his family, the young Scarlet spends the summer away from home and return only at the onset of winter. Normally he is active as a hawker then to even now do its share to the livelihood of his loved ones. But this year everything is different: A gang of robbers ruled the pass, the Scarlett on his way to the city would have to cross. meets

When the infamous captain of the gang, Liall, for the first time Scarlett, he is impressed by the beauty of the young man and asks in jest a kiss as road tolls. A price that the star-headed Scarlett refused him quite definitely. Instead, Scarlett tried in many ways yet to cross the pass. Only to be caught each time at the last moment by the robbers. And with every failed attempt is also increasing the price Liall calls from him ...

My opinion:


To be honest, I was not particularly impressed by this book. I have perhaps a little too much to expect it, after it had been recommended to me several times and the meetings to be very positive in general.
This is a typical story in an online form that uses a lot of popular clichés. You can feel it mainly the characters: Scarlett is small, petite, pretty and delicate, Liall tall, muscular and masculine. The classic constellation that is to be found mainly in YAOI-manga you. I know that many like that combination, I personally annoying this type of couple. Especially if, as here, is the delicate character so effeminate that they would have to change a few words to make it a typical hetero-romance.

As you can imagine from the title already: The story is based on the fairy tale of Little Red Riding Hood and many scenes are based on the fairy tale. This is a nice idea and usually very amusing implemented, such as when Scarlett herself dressed as a grandmother, to deceive the big, bad wolf.

In itself, the book would be a nice love story. Nothing special, but still entertaining reading material. If not for one detail: It is the first of a trilogy, and unfortunately not really complete (also, things like Lialls and Scarlett's first night on gemeiname almost foolishly delayed - it will indeed offer something in Volume 2 can). I have browsed to the unsatisfactory end of the book a bit and have come to realize that this is essentially a single in three parts, chopped story is. This is something that really irritates me. I know the author will make this little book in small quantities, no fortune, but I see it as a non-reader to pay 30 € to read a single story that this is not so good I would feel that this amount be appropriate.
Despite great cover and, despite the curiosity of the end of the first volume is definitely there: I'm going to another book of the trilogy Yet.

Wolf And The Three Pigs Cake

The presence of the Slasher

It is very amusing to perceive more and more productions (Slash) Fanfictionszene and install it in their stories. For example, "Supernatural," which I look at yourself, but where I Scarabae of [info - personal] 'll always well supplied with information, where the theme is slash fiction even mess out directly.
Even German soap opera productions to recognize the potential audience. RTL currently has two gay couples in their soaps. For one, it organized a Fanficwettbewerb, the other has it within the range a Career as a figure skating pairs with a blog together with Fangirls written on the web. (To be read in detail at frogspace: http://frogspace.livejournal.com/335761.html )

The reason why this is so short, I sum up my current Obession with superzuckrigfluffigen series "You're Beautiful "and a scene of the last run:

short of Contents: boy band (tae-kyung, Shin-woo, jeremy) examined fourth band member. Go is selected mi-nam, who is prevented from signing the contract, because his latest Cosmetic Surgery gone wrong. So the manager comes up with the idea, its Twin sister a while to let stand in for him. Everyone can think of: the girl (mi-nyeo) will stand in for far longer than necessary.

Now we are at the point where the mi-nyeo and tae-kyung are finally in love, sneaking a couple are (of course he knows that she is a girl) and he told her in a parking lot hands on the shoulders puts to her whisper something. Just at the moment moves them behind a bus full of screaming fans (* lol *!)
Mi-nyeo does now, of course, worried that rumors might arise. Then Tae-Kyung reassured them that the internet various romances about him circulating, and not just with girls. The favorite scenario would be a love triangle between the three band mates. The wonderful

Can Too Much Showering Cause A Yeast Infection

Ilona Andrews: On the Edge (The Edge 1)

It's been a while since I've read this book, I have not reviewed only forever. Now, I finally sat down and I can say one thing in advance: Read!


On the Edge (The Edge, #1)

Genre: (Urban) Fantasy, Paranormal Romance

Content:
Rose Drayton, lives in "the Edge" a narrow strip that marks the transition between two opposing worlds: "the Broken" is what we know world in which there is Walt Mart, Firearms and no magic. On the other hand, is "the Weird" is a certain magic of world attention, the blue-blooded aristocrats in the fates.
Rose changes every day to Broken in order to earn a living for herself and her two younger brothers. would After Weird they never put a foot. In her youth Rose committed the stupidity, to reveal that it can draw far better than other magic Edger. Then arose not only Edge residents, but also droves of Weird aristocrats on their doorstep to them (by force if necessary) to marriage and thus to "persuade" young production. Meanwhile, although it is quieter, but the fear remains. Rightly so, it seems that one day the blue-blooded magician appears Declan Camarine and unambiguously makes clear that he will not return without his wife to Rose as Weird. While Rose still is busy trying to clarify Declan that she rather shoot a hole in the knee, as will his wife, suddenly appear dangerous monsters on the peaceful Edge. It quickly becomes both clear that they are dealing here with an enemy that must defeat them, they do not want to risk the destruction of Edge.

My opinion:
Ilona Andrews is in this country, if at all, rather for her urban fantasy series by Kate Daniels announced. "On the Edge" is her first foray into paranormal romance. But it would be Ilona Andrews not, if this book is really just a cheesy love story with supernatural characters would be. Rather, "On the Edge" entertaining and interesting (Urban) Fantasy with nasty monsters and a Romance element. I mean, what love story begins with the fact that the heroine strikes down a zombie, who was once her grandfather?

The world concept (Broken, Ege, Weird) is obviously not very new or original, but while reading the book, it has nevertheless Sun I love how this author again and again for a smooth and convincing world their stories, designs, without having to invent too much complicated bells and Schack and bore the reader with explanations of their world building.

convincing Similarly, their figures. There are a number of great supporting characters, which I will not say too much, except: I love Rose 'little brothers.
The protagonists, Rose and Declan could be the typical romance novel couple. She is strong willed and stubborn, he stuck up, incredibly handsome and also stubborn. So just what one reads in the Romance and what so often bores me terribly as a rule. The exciting thing about Rose and Declan is that these figures are lined with a personality. Both are more than the usual romance novel masks. If you notice Rose is learning at the beginning, you know Declan however only in the course of the book. At first I had from him the same impression was probably rose at the beginning: a typical alpha male, good looking, but little character. But when Declan starts with Rose and her family to interact and to learn more about his real motivation, this figure is getting more and more in depth. The expected budding romance did not last, therefore, a good timing. Rose and Declan to know each other in the course of the book to know better and the End, it is actually feeling and respect for each other, combine them and not the mere physical attraction that makes so many romance couples fall within the first 100 pages in the sheets.
The only thing that really drove me up the wall, that was definitely too frequent mention of Declan's dazzling appearance. That was a little, as if to Ilona Andrews must always remember in between: the moment, too much action, too many monsters, so I write romance, so again hastily mentioned how delicious is my hero. If she had not actually been necessary. Ilona is in any case best when it is gloomy and funny at the same time and happened only in the romance of Limonite.

In fact, it but the first book in the direction of "Paranormal Romance" I've really enjoyed (and is, Jeanie Frost in the direction, and I liked Volume 1). Somehow, I resist it I actually a little bit to describe this book as a true paranormal romance (although I've done in this meeting is not exactly rare * g *). Many PR novels are completely focused on the love relationship, the plot behind it is more decoration. The feeling I was not here. There is a separate plot that would have worked even without the love story. Then there are the typical Andrews ingredients: great humor with a great sense of slapstick and some really disgusting and horrific monsters. On the other hand, I must admit that the romance between Rose and Declan still makes up a significant portion of the book.

Anyway, I had a sleepless night and a lot of fun with this book. However, I prefer the "Kate Daniels" novels. On the one hand, because I romance in my books, in smaller doses may, on the other hand, because, as mentioned above, find that the action Ilona Andrews last term is more urban fantasy. Nevertheless, I will next year be in the bookstore and Volume 2, by the way, is "Bayou Moon" hot tear to me.

(quite honestly. Ilona could write anything at the moment and I would buy it, the author simply hits a nerve with me would have been different I was not even getting them to buy a book with this cover. Even if he is in certain circles that promotes sales well: I think the blond guy stuck in the corner just terrible and have it immediately bonded with the price tag)

Kudzu Extract Walgreens

25 liters of pig's blood ...

and Smirchtel Günni .... and in giving mood

Or: how I spend a hearty Halloween?

As I was out on the weekend, are the ingredients for a successful Halloween weekend to get exotic, heavy odor and technically hard on the edge of endurance - but if you have them together, the fun is guaranteed - though perhaps not values for the audience.

below so a small shopping list for those who the successful party not long ago have thrown more.
need:

- 100 coffins (! Borrow from a famous coffin factory)
- 1 Perlsacktierchen
- 20 pairs of contact lenses, white
- , about 30 liters of coffee
- more replacement blades Epee
- 25 liters of porcine blood
- 1 draw
Bank - 2 bottles of baby powder
- 4 kg goulash with noodles
- freezer bags for Blood packs
- 1 Fabric-Bear stuffed animal with explosives
- 1 Australia Wax Coat

- 1 Gruga-Halle in Essen
- a chocolate pudding filled with pork intestines
- 1 hiking wells
- 1 Mac Guyver
- 2 tubes Kukident adhesive cream

and a lot of other little things like some Cubic meters of particle board or 20 liters of fog fluid. Then

confusing you all on a Friday night together and this mixture can be run through to Saturday night well.
The result is ....
- terrific
- breathtaking
- stupid
-
nauseating - and anyway ..... very cute muscle laughing ....

who has worked its way up to this reading, which may now benefit from the wisdom gathered this weekend - and take one or other of profound knowledge with the rest of his life: first

Blood sacrifices are great for keeping the text in the dress rehearsal. They are always just stupid on altars around - then they can do so at least until her death socially useful.

second Cardboard and reinforced tape can be a lot of tinkering - even a papal miter

third The national costume of the Transylvanian Bäuereinnen is damn sexy and incredibly modern-it consists primarily of a very tight laced corset - at least in the Essen-GRUGAHALLE adaptation. Like the breath of the Transylvanian peasant women harvesting robbed in this dress enters, could now also the first time on the basis of experimental archeology during of the control samples are cleared off the stage. It has simply imperious look at the fields to be harvested / tree / store and the money-panting obsequious peasant is happy to comply with their orders.

4th Really stupid is it when the dress rehearsal, the heroine in a fight scene in addition to various vampires equal miterschießt. Trial and Error is when then during the show's heroine no longer be shot, either because you just slipped out the magazine of the gun and opened with a loud bang on the stage floor.

5th The removal of eyeballs on the rack is to make sure no leaving large ugly pig's blood stains on the ceiling. Especially not if it will advance by the organizers pointed out that one can not really make anything but a stain on the ceiling.

6th The longer vortschreitet the sample, the monosyllabic, the villain. What the beginning nor an elongated elaborate marriage proposal to the heroine (including hidden death threat in the "per impossibile" unlikely event of failure to adopt) was to be to clock at 23:45 on a Friday evening: "Getting married? Not? Men .... Kill "-! Summarized Good and only slightly less effective as the long versions. I am sure that the "Danielle-Directors-Cut" of this proposal is certainly errreichen cult status.

7th The deep sigh of the afflicted Mac Guyver - after having been postponed for the umpteenth time, the picturesque draw well on stage - is going to sound to me a long time in my ears: "19-meter platform ..... STAGE 19 meters and a fucking walking well - and you manage, you hide behind it all. - YOU CAN NOT SEE YOU AGAIN "§$"$&(/))=)/"$§" VER 111 "!!

8th For the lords of the Schöfpung who are still looking for a wife for this or that night here, the knowledge of our stuntman Pitti, after he survived a fall from several meters. -Only to then be attacked by a hormone-controlled visitor almost on the mat:
"If I had known at 18 already, how easy it is to give a woman Abeln - you just have bleeding like a pig from 5 meters Hö he fall down somewhere "- We will not verify this theory with extensive field pilot tests Chung - Non-vertigo-düren voluntarily one likes under "Leone Pugnae.com" Report

9th Frightening is it that it has generated a small brown bat pearl pocket-called "Peter-Klaus, the bat," even in such a young age to a stage name. - Something which other players can still only dream of. Needless to say that "PKs" airs and graces were unbearable. But at least he gave us graciously indulged in one of his five dressing rooms, the Mistviech!

10th In addition to general and human intelligence again breakthrough Discoveries in biology made! The G-cartilage of the woman was discovered and immediately covered. Sun schöööön isser then again, not now.

11th It should satisfy himself that the DJ, which one hires the Gothic area under iconic Gothic-Mucke NOT "Thriller" from Michael Jackson knows! Because remember: even if the singer in his own lifetime was in the stage of full-body resolution, this does not mean that he is determined to enqueues smoothly into the lineup of bands like Samsas Traum, Eisheilig or Lacrimas Profundere .
ABBA is one way, not in the target group "Gothic" - not even with a lot of good will. -


12th And last but not least: Günni Smirchtel and have once again a wonder of art accomplished makeup artist to the visitors: who entered with a healthy complexion nor the torture chamber, changed When you see the exquisite little things in the baskets before the remains of the rack the complexion.
Whether it was also because that Günni specifically adapted to the evisceration of the victim hearty bite of the chocolate pudding filled with pork intestines, or at least to the Smirchtel of the feet, the visitor is struck bloody pig livers. - We do not know - the victim / refuse visitors currently not only solid foods but also any statement.

is certain, however: Never Give Günni a bloody pig's tongue in your hand! For in this way then relish the bare shoulders of unsuspecting visitors licked. Which have incidentally noticed until then not at all that they have been since bezüngelt with real material.


Had I actually mentioned that it was my pleasure, the so angeschlabberte lady of quality und Echtheit des an ihr  eingesetzten Züngleins aufzuklären??? -
