Product Review: o.b. tampons
Katie I’ve been struggling with how to write a review for tampons for a while now. But I am just going to be as honest as possible while trying not to cross the “TMI” line. Recently I had the chance to try out o.b. tampons for being a bzzagent. I was sent several packages of the o.b. tampons which have no applicators. I liked that because they are more environmentally friendly and you are also able to be more discrete with them. They fit in your pocket and also came with a nice little case that holds 4 tampons that can easily fit in your purse or pocket without it being super obvious what you have.
I wasn’t sure how I’d like not using an applicator, but I didn’t find that to be a problem at all after a failed attempt at first. My main problem was that they were not up to par with the absorbency of my usual tampons.
I do have the little case in my purse and would use them if it was all I had, but as far as replacing my usual brand, I don’t think that be happening any time soon.
I received free tampons from ob to try in order to write this review. I was not otherwise compensated.
Save Me, Kurt Cobain is about a girl named Nico. Nico’s Mom left when she was 4 years old and promised she would be back for her, but never came. Nico listens to Nirvana and plays with a Ouija board with her best friend Obe (rhymes with robe). Somewhere along the way Nico thinks that maybe her father is not her father and perhaps her real father is Kurt Cobain. When she finds pictures that her Mom took at a Nirvana concert about 9 months before she was born, she seems to become even more convinced. While on the ferry by herself heading home after visiting her Aunt in Seattle, Nico sees a man that looks like he could be Cobain, despite the fact that he has been dead for years. She wonders if maybe it is him and he faked his death and decides rather than going home, she will follow him and try to get answers. A winter storm hits and Nico can’t get in touch with anyone so her father panics and it is now all over the news that Nico is missing. Nico is able to find her mother’s best friend and tries to get some answers as to where her mother went. Nico thinks that she has an idea of where her mother may have been heading and as she and “Cobain” head there, they get caught by the police and Nico has to go home. All of the news outlets want to talk to Nico so she uses this to her advantage and asks if anyone has information on where her mother might be, to please say something.
I first found out about Zach Anner when he was in the voting to be on a competition show that Oprah was having for her network to win your “OWN” show. I remember telling my parents that there was a kid who was trying to get votes and he had cerebral palsy too. (Yes, I also have the sexiest of the palsies.) We rooted for him week after week and were so excited when he won (spoiler?) and watched all the episodes of Rollin’ With Zach when they were on OWN as well. I hadn’t really kept up too much with what he did after that, although now that the book has mentioned a bunch of things I’ll have to go catch up on his YouTube channel soon.
Playing Hard is a baseball romance, which I usually love. For some reason I couldn’t get started on this one right away, it took several tries. I think it as more trying to fit it into my schedule than anything else. When the galley expired, I had to be quick to finish it before the version on my app expired and I’d lost it forever.
