Dr. Oz said a weight loss drug could help Americans lose 131 billion pounds by next year. Okay, let's fact-check. 131 billion pounds / 300 million Americans = 436.7 meaning every man, woman, child needs to lose 436.7 pounds for this to be true. Nope. I call BS.

What hope is there after it all crumbles?
Surrender and flow into the rivers whose paths we may not be known, but will go beyond perceived obstacles.
Journey the road that burns safety blankets, but liberates.
Then rise from the ashes.

The '90s human girl x werewolf boyfriend are all grown up and living in married bliss. But once bodies of locals start appearing every full moon, our headstrong fmc has a choice: solve the killings or admit true love shouldn't require this much bleach.

Abby is an inexperienced detective, and Alyssa would rather be sneezed on by a congested elephant than take your case... but if you’re desperate, they’re probably as good as you’re going to get. A mystery/comedy.
