I'm looking for a fantasy/romace book?

Hi. I'm looking for some fantasy/romance books to read. Preferably a series of some sort. I have read the clockwork series, and the books related, the maze runner series, Eragon, (I wasn't real interested in that one though) and several other fantasy/romance books. My sister has my Nook right now, and I can't remember the names of them all. Specifically, books dealing with vampires, werewolves, faeries, angels, etc. I would appreciate any suggestions. And thank you in advance!

Cleaning my Mini Cooper?

I just bought a 2011 Mini Cooper (base model, hatchback). The dealership said to be careful when I'm cleaning it because some products, although advertised as "protecting", can actually harm the interior/exterior surfaces.

I'd like to get a sort of "care kit" that has things for both (obviously, not "dual purpose" products--I'm sure those don't exist) the inside and outside and all the nooks & crannies in between. What all products would you recommend?
Added (1). I also was told that taking it through those fully-automated car washes does serious damage to the Coopers.

How worried do I need to be about germs?

So I've been hearing a bunch of stuff in the news about germs recently and it's kind of thrown me into an OCD episode. I'm freaking out that there are germs everywhere. For example, today I was thinking about what I do on a daily basis and I realized that I almost always put my deodorant on after i use the toilet in the morning before I wash my hands. Then I started worrying that my deodorant was contaminated and spreading germs to my armpits and if I sweat those germs would travel down my arms and the sides of my torso and some germs have probably transferred to my bed and my hair. Now I have the sudden urge to sanitize literally everything of mine and every nook and cranny in my house, but I'm also really tired and just want the worrying to stop. I know this seems utterly ridiculous, but I'm very serious so if someone could just tell how worried I need to be that would be great. Thanks in advance.

Where should I start in the Marvel Universe?

I know absolutely nothing about marvel comics or anything relating to that but I really want to start reading the comics. Where should I start? Is there a particular arc I should read first? Does it even matter?

How much does an oil change cost?

There is an accumulation of droplet marks on the asphalt of my parking space in my town-home neighborhood. Every fiber in my body is screaming "no!" (I don't make generous paychecks), but if there is an elephant in the room… You need to look at it. I took my car in today to a shop that has been voted "best in MD" a couple times and they are going to inspect every nook and cranny of the car, just because this car was a hand-me-down and I want peace of mind.

How much does the standard oil change set you back?

Thinking about working at Barnes and Noble - help?

I'm 18 and recently graduated from high school. I'll be starting college in the fall with classes just in the mornings so I was thinking about getting a job as well. The only job that has come to mind thus far has been at Barnes and Noble. I've had no previous work experience though so this would be my first job.

So I have a couple questions:
- Interview process?
- Working there in general?
- Issue with no work experience?
- Types of positions they have?
- Any tips/experiences?

Thanks!

Are there surefire hiding places that the cops wont find when they serve a search warrant?

For example; say that the cops have a warrant to search a home for drugs or drug money. Now; they might not leave a single nook crannky or campbells soup can unchecked; but do they actually "gut" the house looking?

For example; there are fake wall outlets that look just like an ordinary one; and you can cut a rectangular hole in your wall and have a hiding place shielded by what looks like just another wall outlet. Are the police going to go through the walls and search those?

There are also genuine looking fake pipes. They look just like real water or gas pipes that you can hook up in your attic; basement or crawl space. Inside these fake pipes you could hide drugs and money.

Now; unless all cops are plumbers; or bring a plumber with them on a search warrant; how are the cops going to know that the pipe has no earthly businesses being there?

Could things like that fool police? Or do they actually shut off the water; electricity and gas and "gut" the whole entire house from foundation to roof?

Because unless they do that; then there are literally thousands of such products on the market.

Say you were constructing a home using wood that isn't chemically treated?

And you had to treat it (chemically) in some way yourself to prevent the wood from becoming a breeding ground for fungi in the future, could you "spray"-laminate the wood with a highly concentrated solution of salt and water?

Not only would this "dehydrate"/artificially season the wood, it would also - once the water evaporates - leave a miscroscopic layer of salt in every nook and cranny in the wood, so any fungi attempting to grow on it would become dehydrated and simply die. Is this a good idea? I'm a college student, barely an adult and have absolutely no experience in home building, let alone any other DIY project, except for assembling furniture from IKEA.

Would this work? I don't want to have to mess around with industrial, toxic chemicals in the future for my own home where my future kids are going to have to live. Besides, when you spray with toxic chemicals the toxins just evaporate in the atmosphere and come down again with rain, hurting the environment and the fungal and bacterial balance in agricultural soil, thus inhibiting the conversion of organic matter into fertilizer/nitrates and nitrites etc. You know the rest, hopefully.

Where can I find a book that teaches how to make money and become popular on YouTube?

I need this book to be thorough. It should include instructions on how to shoot, edit and upload videos, as well as how to market them.
It's hard to believe, but I did not see a SINGLE BOOK about YouTube at Barnes and Noble today. Do they even exist? There were plenty of books, hundreds of pages long, about Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter, etc, and I can't understand why. How can someone fill a book with hundreds of pages about Facebook, yet have NOTHING to say about YouTube, which is far more complicated?
Added (1). Oh, I forgot to mention that I am an artist (oil painter) and I want to make my debut on YouTube, but I don't want to be one of those hapless souls who only gets 17 views on their video. I want to make an impact and good first impression. I want to get it right.

Paying for nook ebooks in canada?

I received a nook ereader as a gift. I don't have a credit card and to download even the free ebooks I have to register one.

Anyone know where I can get a gift card I can use for this? Its under the Barnes n noble umbrella which we don't have here. Would a gift visa or MasterCard work? I'd hate to buy one only to have it not work!

How to Get A Job At Barnes & Noble? - 1

I sent in an online app and I visited the location yesterday, I'm applying for the position of Head Cashier and I'm 17. When I visited the manager, she looked confused as to why I was there. But I just introduced myself handed in the resume and tried to give her my app but she wouldn't take it.
I just don't think I'll get the job b/c of my lack of work experience (I've never worked before) and my age. So my questions are…
Being that I have no work experience and I am under the age of 18, do you think I'll get called in for an interview at least?
Also, are teenagers usually considered for the job of Head Cashier, or is that something exclusive to adults only, or someone who has work experience?

Thanks a Bunch!
XOXO
