Book Review: OUTWARD BLONDE by Trish Cook. A Fun and Entertaining Look at Teenage Angst.
Cook’s humor absolutely shines in Outward Blonde. The hilarious depictions used to describe poor Lizzie’s intestinal woes had me laughing out loud. And the colorful array of words used to describe the female anatomy had me cracking up. Lizzie’s journey is wrought with drama, sadness, lots of climbing, laughter, some intensely itchy situations, and most of all, love. The way Lizzie and her fellow campers — Sam, a confused lesbian; Chandra, a do-gooder with a gambling problem; Ari, the way-too-skinny bad boy “artiste;” and Jack, the good guy who wears guilt like a second skin — come together during an unexpected adventure to Vegas shows Lizzie what true friendship is all about.

Berlin Station – “Station to Station” Review. Spies Are Us.
When I first heard about Berlin Station, I got excited, very excited, mostly because of the casting. Series lead Richard Armitage, who plays CIA Analyst Daniel Miller, is not only easy on the eyes, he fits the bill of what you want a spy to look like – tall, handsome, fit, and intelligent. While all these things make up the Hollywood version of what operatives look like, spies come in all shapes and sizes. The impressive casting in Berlin Station includes Richard Jenkins as Chief Steven Frost, Rhys Ifans as Case Office Hector DeJean, Michelle Forbes as Internal Branch Chief Valerie Edwards, and Leland Orser as Deputy Chief Robert Kirsch.
