    My Favourite Reads of This Year

    I must admit, I’ve been really struggling with what to write about this week. My inspiration has flown out of me like a bird out of a cage, and I’ve just been a bit lost really. But when I find it hard to write, I read. So if I can’t think of what to write about I will talk about what others have written! This year I have really got back into reading. I don’t think I’ve enjoyed it this much since I was a child! I often find reading exacerbates my tiredness – my eyes start to burn and my arms ache from holding up the book (I really…

    Anxiety Girl: The Book We All Need In Our Lives

    Lacey London’s Anxiety Girl is the anxiety book we all need, to read, to experience and to share! I don’t often review books, because it takes me quite a long time to read them.

As soon as I finished it I knew I had to write about it.

    My One True Love: FRIENDS

    Today is Valentines Day, which my other half and I don’t really celebrate. So I thought I would share the other love in my life, on this the day of love. That love is FRIENDS. What is FRIENDS? For those who don’t know (have you been living under a rock?) FRIENDS is an American sitcom set in Manhattan, about a group of 6 friends of varying backgrounds and their lives as they go from 20-somethings to 30-somethings. It stopped filming in 2004, so its now been nearly 15 years since the last episode aired. But to me, it has aged well and is still the best thing on TV. It’s…

    Big Mouth: A Masterpiece

      I don’t know how many of you have seen, or even heard of, Netflix’s show Big Mouth, but I really want to talk about it. Please note this post does contain some episode spoilers, but no big story lines.

From getting your first period on a school trip in white shorts, to the confusing feelings…
