Review of the book Below The Surface by Tim Shoemaker

I really didn't like this book, I guess I had my expectations to high. I had trouble getting past half the book and it really took all I had to finish this book so I could write my review.

This book was about 4 friends who during a summer break witnessed a murder. They saw this couple fighting and how the woman got thrown off the boat and died and how the man tried to cover up the entire time. All in all it was just an ok book and not worth recommending to my friends. Normally I like murder mysteries but this one could get my attention. I guess because I could not get into the story line. I guess I couldn't get into the four characters. I don't even really remember who they are and much about the book. I really don't know what to write for this review because I don't really remember much about the book. I wonder if it was really just this book or I would I like other books by this author. 250 words right now is really hard for me to write about because I am just not into like the other books that I have read. I normally tell my friends and family about books but this one I did not because I didn't think they would like it either. I really wish I could remember more about the book but I am struggling right now with what to say or write down.

Mila Kunis Pregnant, Expecting First Child With Fiance Ashton Kutcher

Mila's going to be a mommy! Mila Kunis is expecting her first child with fiance Ashton Kutcher, multiple sources confirm to Us Weekly.

"This is something they both wanted," one insider tells Us. "They are both so happy."

Kunis' pregnancy news comes just one month after the Jupiter Ascending actress was seen wearing a large diamond engagement ring on that finger, while shopping with her mom on Feb. 27. The former That '70s Show costars and longtime friends first went public with their relationship in spring 2011.

Another source says Kutcher is "very happy" with the news of his fiancee's pregnancy, although he still remains resolutely private about his personal life. "Ashton has been very private and cut off more than he usually is," the insider tells Us. But, the Two and a Half Men star has been chatting with a longtime pal who is newly-familiar with fatherhood.

"He has been talking about kids with Danny Masterson," the source reveals. (As previously reported by Us, That '70s Show alum Masterson secretly welcomed a baby girl with his wife Bijou Phillips on Feb. 14.)

Kutcher, who was once married to Demi Moore, finalized his divorce from the Margin Call star last November. He shares no children with Moore, although Kutcher did grow close to the 51-year-old star's three daughters during their marriage.

"I know they are planning on being as quiet about their life together as possible," the insider adds of Kutcher and Kunis.

(E! also reported the news of her pregnancy on Sunday.)

Review of the book Distortion by Terri Blackstock

This book was awesome! I could not put it down! This book is about how this woman named Juliet saw her husband get murdered and has to figure out who did it and why was her husband dead. Turns out he was involved in drug trafficking and also had a secret family with another woman and a baby! The drug traffickers used the kids to get the family to talk but it ended up working all out in the end! The other wife got arrested for being involved in the whole drug trafficking stuff. Wow this review is really short so I need to make it longer to meet the requirements. I find stuff about drug trafficking pretty interesting. I watch shows on it all the time. I like seeing how people get sucked into having to take drugs and what it does to their life. Many people become addicted to drugs and it messes up their entire life. And some people end up having bad reactions to the drugs such as death and other problems. In this movie I watched about someone getting addicted to heroin, they ended up getting sick, like throwing up unless they had more of the drug in their system. They ended up spending all of their hard earned money to getting drugs and freaking out when they ran out of money and couldn't get the drugs. One girl in the movie I saw actually used needles to get the drugs because it takes less of the drugs to get into the blood stream. She ended up dying because she took to many drugs.

Review of the book Storming The Black Ice by Don Brown

This book was not what I had expected but still a good book nonetheless. It was about navy seals who had huge submarines who all called war on each other and tried to take out each others submarines all over gold under the ground that was covered by snow hence the the tile of the book. Turns out everyone makes it out okay in the end and the war is called off. I enjoy watching movies about this as well. I recently watched a movie called submarine where they had to fire off missiles to save the world from aliens. And they needed the help of the entire navy and other marines to do this. And they found out about the aliens from the tracking machines they had on the boat, that tracked the aliens location by gps so they could follow the aliens and see when they would attack next. The aliens did indeed kill people but the navy didn't get discouraged. They kept on fighting and won. I like alot of navy movies including one with Kelsey Grammer the actor. I enjoy watching movies with soliders like the most recent movie American Sniper with Bradley Cooper, he played a great solider dealing with ptsd after killing people in the war in Iraq and how he couldn't cope being home with his wife and his baby. He kept losing his mind and having flashbacks. Ptsd is something I deal with as well after being raped when I was a kid and I struggle with this today.
