Tandem review
I received a free copy of Tandem on Friday morning from Blogging for Books to review, and finished it on Saturday night! I couldn't put it down. At first, it was a little hard to get into and the main character was SOOOOOO cheesy as was the writing, but after a couple of chapters you could tell the author got comfortable and it was really good.
It's a story about a girl who lives in a small town 'Abbey Hills' who takes care of her father who is diagnosed with Alzheimer's. (I related because of my Grandpa). While she's dealing with that, she's getting an auction together, and dealing with the mysterious murders going on in the small town.
The book has a lot of different characters and you fall in love with all of them. It has a little romance, mystery, suspense, and a huge surprise ending. I would definitely reccomend this one.

The mom of a 'Princess Boy' speaks out
I always watch the Today Show when I'm getting ready for work in the morning and eating my Breakfast and this story was SO interesting!
The mom of a 'Princess Boy' speaks out
Cheryl Kilodavis and her son were on the show speaking about how her 5 year old son likes to wear Princess dresses and her struggle with accepting it. She eventually wrote the book 'My Princess Boy' and found that A LOT of mothers were having the same issue.
I think this book sends out a great message about individuality and accepting people for who they are. With all the bullying and suicides going on, it's so important that people are aware and I think by letting our kids be individuals and accepting them, it will build confidence and they'll be able to handle bullying at school in a different way.
