    Book: Survive the night

    Author: Riley Sager

    By: Cece Hymes

    This Book was really good. I enjoyed it. It was about a movie-obsessed college student Charlie who is in a car with a stranger who she thinks might be a serial killer. The man is a virtual stranger who she thinks goes to school where she is at. Charlie is trying to get away from a guilt and grief over a murder of her friend.

    While Charlie is in the car, she keeps thinking of movies she can’t tell whether she zoned out into a movie or is this real life. She tries to think so hard if her mind is playing tricks with her or is this really the serial killer.  The driver says things here and there to make her think that he definitely is the campus killer.

    Things take the wrong turn and things start to hit the fan as she plans her escape and also her revenge for her friend. She misses her friend a lot.

    Would you even get in a car with a stranger if you knew the serial killer was out there? Why doesn’t she have a cellphone like everyone else does? If you watch so many movies can you turn everything into movie themes? Would that be cool or scary? I just would be so scared to try to survive the night thinking I might die tonight.

    Just some things to think about. I enjoyed this book. If you like a good thriller with some action this is the book for you. 

  • Clearwater Beach FL

    Clearwater Beach FL

    By: Cece Hymes

    This was the first time I been to Clearwater beach Fl. It was a Birthday Trip/Vacation. It was much needed. The water was so beautiful the weather was nice. I wish I would have stayed a little longer. We were able to do a couple of events on our short trip.

    We experience the Encounters with the Dolphins. We were able to see the Mama and baby dolphin just out of the water a couple of times which was amazing. It was nice to here about the different people that owned the beach houses and mansions. The Tour Guide was amazing and was a comedian which made the ride very much better. We stopped at a small island just to relax and enjoy the sight-seeing. A lot of great Seashells so pretty. We really enjoyed this.

    The next experience we did was the Escape Room on Clearwater Beach. Now this was great, it makes it better when you have a group. We did the Davinci Exhibit room. It was hard but we got through it. You get an hour to try to open up on the locks. This was really a fun game. We had 5 people and it feels like are we smarter than an 8th greater we all were lost sometimes like what. We got more clues than we needed but hey sometimes you gotta do what you got to do.

    We enjoyed the Live music at Shephard’s Beach hotel. The food was great, the drinks were on point and the music was really fun. It felt good outside just to be able to relax and enjoy some great music with a mixed crowd. This was really nice.

    This trip was much needed cant wait to go back it was some other things I would love to try and enjoy. Make sure to check out Clearwater beach a lot of things to do whether you with friends or family very relaxing.

  • Bahama Breeze in Duluth GA

    Restaurant: Bahama Breeze

    City/State: Duluth GA

    By: Cece Hymes

    Some friends and I went to this place this week for my Birthday dinner. This place is very nice. They have a Live band on the weekend, but they did not have it on a Monday. Wish they would have at least had some light music playing outside. So, we played our own music very lightly, so we did not have to disturb anyone.

    Now the food was good I got the Shrimp and Lobster Pasta. It’s a very good serving. I also got a frozen drink. I can’t remember the name of it but will show the picture. Now the customer service was good and didn’t have any problems.

    Let me go back if you do not know what Bahama Breeze it’s like an island grille restaurant is.  It offers burgers, salads, Seafood, pasta foods like that.

    So, in the scenario some of the guys paid with cash maybe was due 3 to 5 dollars cash back. The waitress just automatically made it her tip and did not ask did you want your change or anything. I feel like she should have asked you never know they might want to give you more than that and now you settled for that but not offering or what if they wanted, they money.  I know that waitresses earn their living by tips, but should they just assume because it’s small to keep it for a tip? It wasn’t my money but if it was, I would have wanted my change. Let me give what I want, don’t just assume without asking.  

    If you haven’t tried this place definitely check it out.

  • Book (White Smoke)


    Book: White Smoke

    Author: Tiffany D Jackson

    By: Cece Hymes

    This book was different from the other books by this author. I enjoyed this book. The ending was dry but it was good. It was about a family that moved to start over to get a new start as the saying goes “Change is good, Change is necessary, change is needed. They move into this house that Marigold think it’s haunted and that she keeps thinking about the past. Her family thinks that she may go back to her old ways when her little sister keeps saying things out of her mouth. She sees things , hears things and no one else seems to see.

    (Quick funny tip) while I was reading this book I went out of town and Maigold had a phobia of bed bugs. As I kept reading about that phobia I kept looking around the hotel room and bed looking for bed bugs. The book made me keep the lights on all night. Just a funny thought glad that wasn’t the case whewwww but this book had me searching..

    This book wasn’t one of her best books but it was good. The whole time had me thinking the whole town knew about this house and something wasn’t right. Marigold was smart and looked into things. Sometimes we all need to go that extra mile and do research. If you are looking for a classic haunted house story you might enjoy this one.

  • Intimacy

    Intimacy

    Intimacy is being close
    To your partner or maybe a spouse
    The closeness that you have
    Between the two also can
    Be a turn on for both of you

    How close do you want to be
    Maybe in between the sheets
    Grabbing them and holding on
    For mercy

    The fire we make
    Sometimes have your legs shake
    Them emotions you have
    Going through your body rate

    Intimacy can start with a kiss
    It can be so passionate and sweetness and can get you intense

    Open up to me
    Let’s be private and cozy

  • Friendship

    Friendship

    What is Friendship
    A bond between the two
    A trust within me and you
    The time that is spent between the two
    And people we look up too

    We have friends that are strong
    We have friends that are wrong
    But that friendship boy
    We have to build bonds

    We have friends for years
    We have some that last for days
    But the good thing we have
    Is great memories

    Friendship is important
    And we all do need
    That one good friend
    We can talk to yes indeed

    Tell your friends
    You love them
    Every chance you get
    Time is short
    So enjoy the present

    I am grateful
    For the friends that I have
    And hope you are too
    This poem is dedicated
    To friendship
    So tell them
    I love you

    Thanks for reading this poem and thanks for this challenge
    Your friendship means alot and glad that we bonded

  • Act Your Age, Eve Brown

    Book: Act Your Age, Eve Brown

    Author: Talia Hibbett

    By: Cece Hymes

    This book was a very good book. I enjoyed reading about Eve Brown and Jacob Wayne. It all started as Eve being all over the place. She is 26 and still staying home with her parents and they help take care of her. She is very smart. She has had plenty of business but not a career. Her parents get on her to get it together and at least hold down a position for a year. Eve leaves and pulls up at this Bed and Breakfast and sees that they are hiring.

    Jacob Wayne is the owner of the Bed and Breakfast. He likes to be in control and very demanding of things. He is looking for a chef and very particular on who is going to work there. Eve comes in and she is very firm with him. She is leaving out and as she is about to pull off she doesn’t look back and hits Jacob.

    So, she feels guilty and stays to help him out. At first, they both kept throwing a lot of mean shots to each other. Then they get to know each other and fall for one another. Eve brings happiness to the Bed and Breakfast and tries out new ideas.

    These two fell in love and the thing I loved about the book is how they communicated. Majority of the time Eve was straight forward of what she wanted and how she wanted things. She was really good at what she does, and she really loved it. She had found something that she really enjoys, and, on the way, she found a friend and a lover. They say Love can come when unexpected it can be days, months, years and sometimes love at first sight. I feel that if you see something you want you go for it. Communication is the key to a lot of things.

    Do you think that sometimes you are put in the right place at the right time? Do you think that you can fall in love at first sight? Do you think love has no color? Do you think that being straightforward with a person and letting them know what you want is a good thing? Do you judge a person by their first interaction?

    I can’t wait to read more books by this author. I love a great love story. Especially one with some hard times and real life. It had some Juicy things in there also to keep the excitement going. I am hoping there is a part 2. I would love to see how this story ends.
