My favorite thing about Jr. Mints is when you think you have finished the whole box and you are kinda sad, just tap the bottom of the box, give it a wiggle and one last mint falls out. Happiness!!

Hot Silver – Riding the Indian Pacific
Steven Lewis
(25 Reviews)
Genre: Travel
FREE for a limited time
It’s Bill Bryson meets Paul Theroux in Steven Lewis’s hilarious review of his train journey across Australia on the Indian Pacific in the train’s fortieth anniversary year.
Hot Silver stops with the train in Broken Hill, Adelaide and Kalgoorlie, all of which are closed when the Indian Pacific visits. Most closed of all, though, is Cook, the tiny town (pop. 5) in the middle of the vast Nullarbor Plain, 200,000 square kilometres of nothingness in the centre of Australia.
“It’s like walking round one of those fake towns the Americans built to test their nuclear weapons. I wouldn’t be surprised to turn a corner and find mannequin Betty Draper holding a plastic cigarette to her red lips while she waits to be blown to kingdom come. And, if the Reds don’t get her, the wind just might.
A perfect read for the armchair traveller, Hot Silver is a laugh-out-loud account that brings to life one of the world’s most famous train trips with the deft sketches and first-hand observation of a seasoned travel writer.

Hell Inc.
C.M. Stunich
(9 Reviews)
Genre: Fantasy
“It wasn’t necessarily that I wasn’t a fan of fairies. Really. It wasn’t that. It was that I wasn’t a fan of being taken hostage by a group of fairies.”
Ginger’s life was already full of cliches – sexy demons in business suits, smart mouthed genies, and angry, French kissing yetis to name a few – so what was wrong with one more? Why shouldn’t she have sold her soul to the Devil for three wishes? Brendan Fraser did it in “Bedazzled,” so it couldn’t be all bad, right?
Too bad her sexy demon caseworker, Levie, wouldn’t put down his romance novels long enough to tell her how to make them. With a slip of the tongue (seriously, all she had to do was say ‘I wish?’), Ginger’s boring life is now up … well, you know, a certain creek without a paddle.
So whether he likes it not, Levie’s going to help Ginger take care of some little problems. Her ex-addict mother is attempting to kidnap her, and on top of it all, Ginger’s managed to bestow her ‘gift’ of supernatural sight on some fellow museum goers. Neither of these would be problems if Hell, Inc.’s genies hadn’t mysteriously disappeared. They’re the only ones who can undo Ginger’s wishes and get her off the hook. If only she could figure out where the hell to find them
