Skinny Taste Cookbook

I got to review the Skinny Taste Cookbook for blogging for books. I had been following her on Instagram for awhile and I was soo excited to get the opportunity to review this cookbook. I got the cookbook in hardcover and flipped through it. It had amazing pictures. About 2 out of 3 of the recipes had pictures either initially or in the process or at the end. I made the skinny salisbury steak with mushroom gravy. Kids loved it too. It wasnt the most amazing salisbury steak recipe I have ever had, but really good and a really easy recipe. I also tryed the cubano-style stuffed pork loin. This was soooo easy and sooo fantastic. they had a picture in the middle of this recipe. Anyway it was fantastic and i will for sure be making it again! Anyway, I would recommend it to other people for sure! Lots of the ingredients are easy to find, not a lot of odd ingredients, the only downfall of it is that the baked goods or desserts area doesnt look that great to me. But the rest are good. This review was based on a free book by blogging for books.

Book review: Peter Pan Must Die

I read this book in a much longer time then it normally takes this fast reader. The plot was interesting but at times unbelievable. It was about this retired detective being called into a closed case. The author references a ton of his other books in this one to try to entice the reader to read those. there was only one referenced that I may check into. There are a ton of twists and turns and some predictability because of the case of cop sabotage of a case and a hired hitman who is unstoppable. Overall, a good easy airplane read.
