Well, hello. At the moment I am very hungry and watching a movie. So why not help everyone out and list a whole bunch of foods to eat while watching a movie?
Yep, that's me. Always thinking big.
So, here's your movie food:
Popcorn (the most popular movie food)
Twix candybars
Snickers
Any candy
Ice Cream (Yum!)
Chips (Preferably with a yummy French Onion dip or Cool Ranch dip.)
Crackers
Chex Mix (Those are the best!!)
Cheetos (so, so good)
Pizza (who doesn't love pizza?)
Chicken Wings or Buffalo Wings (I am so craving some right now.)
French Fries (One of my favorite foods)
Cookies
Okay, I think I'm done. There's probably something I'm missing, but oh well.
This wonderful post is what happens when I'm hungry. :)

Photography! By Me.
Ah. So this is just a flower from a bush that I zoomed in on. I would've gotten closer to it, but I was deathly afraid after an ant crawled up my leg. I added in the little burning pinkish/reddish slash in the middle. Other than that, the picture is an original. I thought it wasn't too bad. I call it 'Burning Flower'.
Okay, so this one looked a bit soft in the beginning, so I made it a bit more gritty. Not bad, eh? In the distance at the bottom right, you can see how it trails off into darkness. I thought that turned out awesome. I'm a sucker for dark fairy tale type of stuff, so yeah. Then towards the top left, everything just brightens up. I totally love twisted and vine-like trees like these. This one shall be called 'Dark & Light Forest'. Kinda lame name, right? Well I don't know what else to name it, so oh well.
OMFG. This one took me for-freaking-ever. Seriously. I know I could've just found some app or program to pop art collage it for me but I wanted to do it on my own. So did this collage one by one, adding the effect to each individual tree photo. Yeah. It was a long time till I was finished. But I feel happy now that I finished, because, honestly, it looks pretty. And I still can't believe that I just went outside, took a picture of this tree and made it into this. I call it '16 Trees'. Now that title sounds awesome.
These two aren't my favorite, but there you go. I'm not even going to bother giving these two a title. My reason? Call it laziness or my disliking of them. ;)
My failed attempt at color splash is the one on the left. Bleh.
Yeah, um, moving on...
Now that I think of it, this could be my new desktop wallpaper. ;)
At first, I thought I overdid this one. Now? Not so much. The bright burn effect thing on the left was like an extra dose of light. The bottom right looks interesting because it looks so different. It looks like roots in the ground. At the same time, it looks like some ancient picture on a wall in a cave. And if I really keep staring, I see a fish. Weirdly cool, I guess. 'Leaking Flower'

A Touch Trilogy by Leah Clifford!
A Touch Trilogy was seriously one of the best trilogies I've ever read.
Leah Clifford is a fantastic author. I don't know how she managed to write a trilogy like that, but it was beautiful. Freaking beautiful.
That's the A Touch Trilogy described in two words: Freaking. Beautiful.
And I totally recommend it.
A Touch Trilogy is a paranormal romance book, with angels and demons. You can also consider it fantasy, urban fantasy, and young adult. Those are just the main genres the trilogy fits into.
I gave the whole trilogy five stars.
SUMMARY OF THE FIRST BOOK:
Eden didn't expect Az.
Not his saunter down the beach toward her. Not his unbelievable pick up line. Not the instant, undeniable connection. And not his wings.
Yeah.
So long happily-ever-after.
Now trapped between life and death, cursed to spread chaos with her every touch, Eden could be the key in the eternal struggle between heaven and hell. All because she gave her heart to one of the Fallen, an angel cast out of heaven.
She may lose everything she ever had. She may be betrayed by those she loves most. But Eden will not be a pawn in anyone else's game. Her heart is her own.
And that's only the beginning of the end.
This is the whole trilogy, in order from left to right. Aren't the covers just awesome?
ANY WHO, so, yeah, there was the summary. Please do not be fazed of the author's choice to name the guy Az. Because, trust me, I know it sounds weird, but Az is so amazing, you will totally end up overlooking it.
Also, the summary was a bit off. Or at least that's how it seemed to me at first. I was still intrigued to read it, but when I finally read it, it was different.
The summary gives you this whole other idea of what you expect to happen and whatnot, but it's so so so different. It'll blow your mind.
The writing and everything was really awesome. Leah Clifford did awesome with the descriptions. Also, there was POV (Point of View) switches.
The whole thing was just dark and gritty and cryptic. The romance was phenomenal, too.
One thing you will definitely not expect is the ending. But I won't spoil it, no matter how much I yearn to. ;)
SO, I totally recommend this book. Like I said, I gave each book in the trilogy five stars. I'm sure you won't be disappointed if you give it a try.
A Touch Mortal, the first book, received an average rating of 3.46 stars, so that's not too bad.
