Go On a Virtual Blog Tour With Andy Zach

What’s a Virtual Blog Tour? Let me show you! It begins with Audio Bookworm Audiobook tours, who organized it and made this promotional poster from my book cover:

Your Second Day of the Virtual Blog Tour

Today we begin with Dab of Darkness blog and my first blog book review! Plus other stuff.

Next, read this wonderful review for you:

There’s so much awesome stuff happening in this book! I really enjoyed the story, especially the backbone of it. Each of these kids (Jeremy, Dan, Kayla, and Aubrey) has their own disability and when Jeremy stumbles upon a way to give each of them a super power, they still have to deal with real life. The super power doesn’t take away or negate their disability but it does give them an edge. Plus, they learn to work together as team, using their individual powers to boost each other. Just a fantastic premise for a story.

The story is definitely geared towards kids, as the plot is pretty straight forward and there’s little conflict among the characters. Our heroes already have a fight on their hands – just being accepted in regular society. In fact, the big hurdle in the book deals with that at their public school. I really liked how they pulled together to tackle the problem and how their efforts pulled in their friends, family, and community.

The end leaves us on a triumphant note as well as hinting as more to come. I hope this is just the start of a series. I think Jeremy needs to keep a close eye on his pet hamster. I kinda hope that hamster becomes the master mind. Ha! 5/5 stars.

Dab of Darkness: I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Andy Zach. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.

Your Five Funniest Memes of April, Curated by Me

Your Five Funniest Memes of April, Curated by Me. If you can find funnier stuff, let me know! Let’s start off with this video snippet.

This meme addresses the burning issue of paper media versus electronic media. This controversy has been debated all my life. Which do you prefer? Ebooks or paperback or audiobooks? I’ve got all three in my Life After Life Chronicles series.

Your Third Funny Meme of April

This next one is so relevant for today!

Do you have any pets? I have a black lab named Trip. Here’s a picture:

Have you ever had to put the cone of shame around your dog or cat? We haven’t done so with Trip, but our previous lab, Diesel, needed on. He had an operation on a joint and had to be kept from picking out the stitches.

Your Fourth Funny Meme – a Video

How could a video about driving on other planets be funny? Watch it and find out.

Who Stole the Kiska?

You don’t think a polka is funny? This is part of my youth growing up in Cleveland with Earnie Anderson, a who had a late movie program and he played the character Ghoulardi. He would play this song DURING old horror movies at the most inappropriate times.

Ghoulardi and Who Stole the Kishka?

Still don’t think it’s funny? Here’s another Yankovitz who’s always funny.
