About
I’m a writer; not yet commercially published. :) I’m a knitter, card maker, coaster maker, doodler, soon to be candle maker, crocheter, jewelry maker and hopefully seamstress in the near future. For me - I like creating and sharing. I have many ideas that will eventually go from my mind to whatever medium I am using. I hope you’ll find my creations both interesting and beautiful. As soon as I get any listed. You’ll see books here as well. Thanks much.

Candle in a Mason jar
This candle burns clean and for many hours. The scent isn't overly strong, but it's enough for me. I imagine in a small space it would be much stronger. I also hope when the candle burns down I can use the Mason jar.

Becoming the Monster
3 of 3 found this helpful This is the third of Scott Westerfeld's Uglies trilogy. Tally, our 16 year old protagonist, has become what she hated and feared in both Uglies and Pretties-she's part of Special Circumstances. This appeals to her for a number of reasons: she lives in the wild, has super physical powers, a close bunch of friends (the Crims she joined in Pretties) and she can operate outside the law, which she now helps to enforce. Along with Shay, the girl that shares her birthday (and is now the Crims' leader), they "hunt" for those that are recruiting for the "New Smoke."
It was strange to hear Tally taking orders from Shay; her attitude was rather subserviant, so the Specials operation affected her mentally as well as physically, but she begins to develop and finally overcomes the "Specials program" without medication. Most of the book revolves around Shay and Tally (who get separated)following a group of runaways to the New Smoke. They're intention is to turn them in. Instead, the two inadvertantly start a war in a world that hasn't known one for quite some time.
The group Tally follows includes her boyfriend from Pretties, Zane. She finds herself disgusted by him. Though he's still pretty, he's weak (especially from the pill he took in Pretties).
She also bumps into David, her boyfriend from Uglies. All of this dregs up her memories and though she still has razor-sharp teeth and ceramic bones, she starts to change.
I like the series because I find Westerfeld's take on a possible future (and how we got there) interesting. The technology and language used throughout create a believable world, which is a bit spooky. This is from the Young Adult genre, which I am not, a young adult that is. Even those outside their teens should find something to enjoy in Westerfeld's series.

I wanted a simple CD player. This is oka...
I wanted a simple CD player. This is okay, but not top of the line. I like the built in power cord in the battery compartment. Tuning and volume are balls, which are a bit odd. The sound is probably average. I unfortunately dropped the player and thankfully it still works, so it’s tougher than I thought it was.
