Ripley's Believe It or Not Reality Shock Book Review

This is a sponsored post

Ripley's Believe It or Not! books have been a Three Boys and an Old Lady fave for years.  Los Tres Amigos, especially the oldest, are huge fans of the book series.  It's one of the books he looks forward to reviewing every year.  The books are full of strange albeit true stories about animals, people, places and things.  


Reality Shock! is the 2015 edition of Ripley’s Believe It or Not! bestselling annual series. This incredible collection is loaded with unbelievable facts, amazing stories, and incredible animals. With amazing photography, zany stories and unbelievable facts and figures, this book is sure to be a favorite with adults and children alike.


Reality Shock! Is filled with more of the amazing facts, unbelievable stories and extraordinary photography that makes Ripley’s Believe It or Not! so popular. Read all about the amazing things that people all over the world have done- from insane stunts to crazy traditions. Take a closer look at the extraordinary images nature produces, such as mutated animals and amazingly impossible vistas. Crystal clear photography paired with zany stories, amazing facts and figures that are undeniably true but incredibly hard to believe will make this book a must have for every household. 

If you've ever been to a Ripley's Museums then you may not be too shocked by some of the pics in the book.  Be forewarned this is not for the weary as there are some pretty gross pics in the books which may frighten younger readers BUT there are also some cute pics and some amazing stories.  Ripley's Believe It or Not! books  feature unbelievable people, places and things from long ago to today.   There's always something interesting in each book and this current edition doesn't disappoint.  Again be forewarned as this is not for the faint of heart but nonetheless it's interesting read.    

Buy It:  Ripley's Believe It or Not Reality Shock is available at stores nationwide or you may purchase online by visiting Ripley's online at www.ripleys.com and online booksellers including Amazon and many others.

Life is a Beach Giveaway Hop

Spring is in full swing.  The birds are singin'.  The pollen is falling and temps are FINALLY warming up.  So what better time time to start planning our Summer getaways. This year - as always - we are beach bound.  It's one of our fave places to visit given we only get to the beach once or twice a year.   Last year's visit to Cozumel was one for the record books. We stopped by this little restaurant and dined on grilled shrimp in a cabana right on the beach.   'Ohana also has a line of tequilas in flavors I had never seen before.  Tropical flavors such as coconut, mango and pina colada.  Hubby and I tried the 'Ohana peanut butter tequila.  The owner said folks either love it or hate it... we LOVED it!!! As I was sipping all I could think of was how good this peanut butter tequila would taste as a baste on my tequila wings.  It would be like a tequila satay wings type dish. * * * G I V E A W A Y * * * One lucky Three ...

I was searching for some cough syrup when my friend’s kid spotted the Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser on sale for 50 cents. What a steal! The regular price is $10 so to find them on sale for 50 cents was a deal. We cleared the shelves. A few rows down we spotted some anima...
