The Casting Couch #1

As a part of my new blog resolutions, I decided to add a new monthly post called "The Casting Couch".  The Casting Couch is my monthly post were I will be "fun" casting a few of the books I have reviewed this month.  This is only my dream cast and or possible cast and has nothing to do with the actual actors that were cast in the movie versions.  I just wanted to let you know who I was seeing in my head as I was reading a few of these books.
Click on the actors name to read their resumes. 

So have a seat on the couch and let the actors show you their stuff...

What I Am Listening To...

Parable of the Sower

Woven Pocketbooks

A couple of days ago, I stopped by one of my favorite online stores DSW to do a little online window shopping and was greeted with this headline.  The Trend? WOVEN.  I am not a trend follower 100%  More like 60% or a trendsetter but when did woven bags come back in to trend and when did they go out of trend.  I can't remember a time when they were not on some ladies shoulder somewhere.  So I did a little more online window shopping and found a few things to support my point.
