Is Tara the New Bubba on True Blood?

As I mentioned in my True Blood season premiere recap, Tara is dead. Well, not exactly. She was turned by Pam(don't ask why). Well after writing that post I started reading other blogs and articles discussing the episode and there are many questions about this upcoming season. One of the main questions involves Tara and how normal a vampire she will be. Some are saying she won't be "all there" because of the shot to the head and will possibly be the TV version of Bubba from the books.

I always wondered why they left Bubba out. He was a big part of the books and really balanced everything out, so I was upset when he never joined the cast. But if Tara becomes something similar to Bubba, then I guess that might work. Lord knows she really shouldn't even be a big part of the show according to the books, so they obviously have big plans for Tara. 

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

There have not been a lot of movies to recently come out that catch my attention like “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo”. Everyone is talking about seeing “The Devil Inside”, but to me, if you have seen one possession movie you’ve seen them all. So I rather go with The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.

But before I see it, I want to read the books that the movie is based off. Most people rather see the movie over the book, but I prefer to read the book to get a better understanding before hand. Plus movies tend to leave out a big portion of the story.

Before 2 days ago, I had never heard of the books or movie, but while on YouTube, a trailer of this movie was shown, and it was so intriguing. So much so that I watched the whole trailer. I usually push - skip it - after the 5 required seconds, but not this time. I just can’t wait to see it. It seems mysterious and raw just like every movie should.

Bookbyte.com Buyback Program!

Ok guys, I have found a new website that sells books and also buys them back and the name is Bookbyte.com. And I am totally in love with them. The process of selling my books to them was simple and the payment was quick.

To get the ball rolling all I had to do was enter my ISBN and the site offered me a estimated price. Now that is about the only tricky part about it. To make sure you get the full estimated price, your books must have all the extras that originally came with it like CDs and access codes. But that was not a problem for me. So after I was offered the quoted price and accepted it, and I then was given the shipping options of either USPS of FedEx Ground. After I chose, I was able to print my postage paid shipping label and I dropped it off the following day.  Easy enough! I was even given a tracking number to keep up with my package. And after 1 day of processing, I received my payment of $52.75 today. I chose to receive my payment via PayPal, but you could also receive payment by check, which would take a little longer.

So all in all, the buyback process was quick and easy and I can see myself using them again. And just in case you are still a little leery about this company and receiving payments, I have included captures from my Bookbyte account with prices and my PayPal account with my payment.

I hope this review was helpful to someone and gives another alternative to dealing with those books you will probably never use again.
