Book Review - The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren

The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Synopsis: Olive is always unlucky: in her career, in love, in…well, everything. Her identical twin sister Ami, on the other hand, is probably the luckiest person in the world. Her meet-cute with her fiancé is something out of a romantic comedy (gag) and she’s managed to finance her entire wedding by winning a series of Internet contests (double gag). Worst of all, she’s forcing Olive to spend the day with her sworn enemy, Ethan, who just happens to be the best man.

Olive braces herself to get through 24 hours of wedding hell before she can return to her comfortable, unlucky life. But when the entire wedding party gets food poisoning from eating bad shellfish, the only people who aren’t affected are Olive and Ethan. And now there’s an all-expenses-paid honeymoon in Hawaii up for grabs.

Putting their mutual hatred aside for the sake of a free vacation, Olive and Ethan head for paradise, determined to avoid each other at all costs. But when Olive runs into her future boss, the little white lie she tells him is suddenly at risk to become a whole lot bigger. She and Ethan now have to pretend to be loving newlyweds, and her luck seems worse than ever. But the weird thing is that she doesn’t mind playing pretend. In fact, she feels kind of... lucky.

My Thoughts: Oh my gosh this was so doggone funny! A genius idea for a story! I loved how Olive and Ethan were the only ones who didn't get sick and wound up going on the honeymoon vacation in spite of how much they loathed each other! It didn't take rocket science to figure out how the story was gonna go somewhat from here but the adventure and the mishaps in between sure were fun! Although the real fun actually started when they got back home and everything had changed between them. If you haven't already read this what are you waiting for?!!!

Review: Had alot of fun playing with this. My niece came over and we played for several hours on it and she did a video review from a kids eye view below so be sure to check it out. She reveals some of the cool bracelets we made.

Maybe this product was geared for kids but I had just as much fun playing with it as she did and plan on making some other cool stuff later after I take a looksie at some You Tube videos. They have a wide array of projects you can make using your Rainbow Bandz Loom! Not really just jewelry items but other cute things as well.

If your kids enjoy crafts or maybe just plain bored from being out of school this is a cool project kit to keep them busy for hours!



I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

TLC Voxbox Review

A couple of weeks ago I was so excited to receive my first Voxbox from Influenster! It was the TLC one and it had some awesome goodies in it! I did an unboxing on Youtube so feel free to check that video out below.

*The box included a coupon for a free Full Sized Box of Breyers Gelato valued between $4.49-$5.99 I picked up the Tiramisu Flavor and didn't really like the flavor of it but they have another 3 flavors to choose from and I think I would enjoy the Vanilla Caramel one but at the time our store was out of that flavor so I will be trying that one later. The ice cream itself was smooth and light it was just the flavor I had that I was not pleased with. Have a "Date Night" with Breyers Gelato on the menu!

*Neosporin to go ($4.97-$7.50)- I Loved this product! It is small enough to fit in my purse or pocket and is wonderful to have handy for those ut-ho booboo's I always manage to get and never have anything handy to spray on them! One of my favorite products in the box and a must have for any First Aid Kit!

*Ivory Bar Soap ($3.99 / 10 Pack)- Another awesome full sized product in our box! Not only gentle for your skin but did you know Ivory soap can be used in many other different ways? Check my Pinterest Board HERE for some neat idea's and uses!

*Avon Anew Reversalist Express Wrinkle Smoother ($30) - This is a cream to powder skin perfector that is so neat! So cool to my face going on and I have noticed quite a difference in the past few days that I have been using it! My face feels softer and less crinkly. I love the mirror on top and it's so awesome how this compact opens! You slide it instead of flipping it open.

*Puffs to go (49 cents per single pack) - These were the Puffs with Lotion and ohhh boy can my poor nose tell the difference! I can't use anything else on my nose anymore! Great size for tossing in my purse especially during allergy season!

*Shell Fuel Rewards Network Card (Free to sign up) - This card is great for saving at the pump and you can even add your participating grocers card like Bi-Lo to it and save even more at the pump and it helps a good bit because gas is totally at an all time high!


I received these products complimentary for testing purposes from Influenster.
