The Rejection Myth
Rejection is simply someone’s opinion. Do not allow it to mean anything more than that.

The Romantic Agenda by Claire Kann
Book: The Romantic Agenda
Author: Claire Kann
By: Cece Hymes
I always say I love romance stories. This book was good. It was about a lady named Joy who had been best friends with a guy named Malcolm for years and years. Joy loves Malcolm but she never told him that she was in love with him. Malcolm loves Joy also and all the women he ever dated feel like he puts Joy as number one, and they leave.
Malcolm lets Joy know that he is into this lady named Summer and that they have been chatting for over 2 months. Joy is used to knowing everything about Malcolm and gets jealous. He invites her on this getaway trip with him and Summer. They decide to bring Summer’s best friend Fox. He wants Fox and Joy to hang out so he can get closer to Summer and to see if Summer and Joy can get along.
I like that Joy is straightforward and speaks her mind. She may not say that one thing about love to Malcolm but everything else she speaks freely and openly. Fox comes on the trip and he kind of observes. Joy and Fox spend time together. They decide to fake like they like each other to see how Malcolm would react. Fox and Joy actually end up liking each other. They brought out something different in one another.
They thing I love about the characters is that they all are open to trying to get better and they open up to one another. The romantic getaway showed everyone what they really wanted and what they were willing to try out. I always say your best friend is your soulmate. I do think that Joy and Malcolm would have worked out, but I feel like Joy will have more fun with Fox. I also think that Fox will be more gentle with her.
I would love to read a part 2 of this book to see how it would go with everyone. To see if Joy can handle moving on from Malcolm or if they realize that they are soul mates.

Jury Duty
Jury Duty
I can’t believe that out of all these years I finally got chosen to go to jury duty. We all talk about how we do not want to go to jury duty. I remember when I was younger, I wanted to be a paralegal but when I took some classes and we had to sit in that courthouse half of day just listening to a case I knew right then and there this was not for me.
When I think of jury duty, I think of sitting in court all day listening to someone’s case and one thing that scares me is that you are putting someone’s life into our hands. We have to make a judgement if they are guilty or not. Why that scares me is because nowadays sometimes people choose one thing and then years later, they really were not guilty. That would be on my conscious.
It’s definitely an experience. I am glad I did not get picked to stay through the whole trail and actually be on it. Sitting in that room for 8 hours just waiting and waiting was an experience. It brought back memories to when I had to go into that courtroom when I was younger listening to cases.
I should have mentioned earlier what Jury Duty is – It is service as a juror in a legal proceeding. A grand jury determines whether there is a probable cause to charge someone with a crime.
Let me know if you ever experienced this and what your thoughts on it?
