The Fowl Twins by Eoin Colfer

So first off, I have to say that I was really excited when I got the opportunity to review this book as I am a huge fan of the original Artemis Fowl series and have read all the main books in the series, at least the ones that I know about.

The Fowl Twins, by Eoin Colfer, is the sequel to the Artemis Fowl series and follows Artemis' two younger brothers, Myles and Beckett, who as you might have guessed are twins.  Myles takes after Artemis as a child genius and is often competing against Artemis, trying to out smart him.  Beckett is more hands on and seems simple, but in really is anything but simple.  The twins are nothing alike, but the differences work to make an excellent balance that helps them push forward.

Without spoiling too much, Myles and Beckett, along with a toy troll, are kidnapped and have to escape with the help of a non-magical blue pixel named Lazuli.  Together, the weird becomes normal, and each member of the team, named the Regrettables, use their skills to get them out of the clutches of a duke obsessed with immortality and a nun who wants to prove that fairies exist.

The story is action packed with lots of plot twists and surprises to keep you reading till the next page.  As a teacher, I like the story because it is fantastical enough to pull students in.  As a cosplayer, there are just so many fun characters to portray such as suit wearing miles, goldfish tie wearing Beckett, and blue pixel Lazuli.  It is one fun story that I highly recommend reading, especially if you are a fan of the original Artemis Fowl series.

The Scarlet Alchemist by Kylie Lee Baker

  I received an ARC of this book.  I originally noticed it because of it's beautiful cover, which led me to read the description and request the ARC. When Dreams Aren't What You Expect Them To Be The Scarlet Alchemist is a fantasy that is set in a China like world when alchemy is real.  You get a taste of Chinese culture in a fantasy setting.  Zilan dreams of becoming a royal alchemist to help her family beat poverty.  She fights her way up to achieve her dream, only supported by her cousins and a powerless prince, as everyone one else tries to continuously tear her down. Only for reality to come crashing down on her hard.  Without spoiling the story, it's a page turner where you simultanously root for Zilan, want her to save the world, while totally understanding both the good and bad choices she makes to survive.  It's an interesting fantasy that really plays on the readers' emotions as Zilan faces many moral choices that determine who she becomes.

Mixed Purple Wig from TinyUnicorn Review

Hey all! I love this multicolored purple wig from TinyUnicorn. It is great for us cosplayers who like to do our original characters. https://www.amazon.com/TINYUNICORN/ About the Seller: Awesome seller. Have worked with them before and items always arrive quickly. About the Product: This is the third wig I have gotten to review from TinyUnicorn and, like the others, I love the mix of multiple colors woven into the wigs. In this wig, the main color is a purple with the tips being a light lavender color. The lavender tips really make the wig pop. I tested the wig with a hair straightener and it is heat resistant which is always good for cosplayers as it allows us to style the wigs as we need. The curls at the bottom help keep the wig from tangling and I would recommend combing through it with your fingers rather than a brush to help keep the natural bounciness of the curls. Like most wig companies, TinyUnicorn sends you a free wig cap with the wig. The one thing that needs...
