Hold Me Closer Necromancer...
Hold Me Closer Necromancer
I'm not normally a fan of the bring back the dead/zombie books but this is on the teen nutmeg list this year so I thought I'd give it a try. I liked it so much I read the second book! I hope there's a third.
The ending of the second book left you thinking AND hoping there might be more. I mean, who doesn't like a necromancer with heart?

A toast to National Eggnog Day!
December 24, 2013 is
Today is National Eggnog Day! Eggnog is one of the most popular beverages served during the holidays, so it is very appropriate that this occasion is celebrated on Christmas Eve!
The traditional recipe for eggnog is milk, cream, sugar, beaten eggs, spices.
There are a few theories about how eggnog actually got its name. One story claims that eggnog was first called "egg n' grog," which was eventually shortened to "eggnog." According to other sources, the name comes from the Old English word for strong ale, "nog." This theory suggests that the combination of the words "egg" and "nog" refers to any drink that contains both eggs and strong alcohol.
Regardless of how eggnog got its name, it has been a favorite holiday beverage for centuries! Make some today to toast the holidays and celebrate National Eggnog Day!
