I've done it. I've managed to post 20 (yes, twenty!) Blogtober posts. I'm as surprised as you are, honestly! I can't thank you enough for reading this (and my other Blogtober posts). I'm a huge fan of YA novels. Three years of reading the set texts at uni hasn't lessened my love for this genre.… Continue reading The Places I’ve Cried in Public (by Holly Bourne) Review

Zombieland: Double Tap (2019) Review [Dir. Ruben Fleischer]
In amongst the post-grad panic of applying for jobs (and getting rejected from most of them almost immediately), I found the time to catch Zombieland: Double Tap, the sequel to the 2009 zombie-comedy Zombieland. It was gore aplenty, something I'm not great with, but it was just as thrilling and funny as its predecessor. The… Continue reading Zombieland: Double Tap (2019) Review [Dir. Ruben Fleischer]
How to deal with rejection
(This probably isn't about the kind of rejection you're thinking, I don't know how to deal with that yet). So, you've made it. You've completed your course, stumbled on stage in that expensive cap and gown and, finally, the next stage of your life awaits. Take it from someone who has been there, done that… Continue reading How to deal with rejection
My TB List
Following on from yesterday’s post, I thought I'd do another list. This time, it's all about my other love: baking! I've been kind of off when it comes to baking this year, considering I've been trying to lose a bit of weight and tone up a little (it's debatable whether I've done that or not!),… Continue reading My TB List
My TBR list
"What to read...what to read?" is a question I often ask myself, despite having a shelf full of books I could read or books I could read again. Now I've finished reading set texts for three years, I'm finally free to read what I want when I want and here's what I'm hoping to read… Continue reading My TBR list
Things I’m excited to do now I’ve finished education
If I had a pound for every time I wrote on my blog that I've graduated, I would probably (and I say probably very lightly) be able to pay off my student loans. Just in case you didn't know, anyway, I've finished education. As I've said before on my blog, honestly, I'm feeling a mixture… Continue reading Things I’m excited to do now I’ve finished education
Boss date spots in Liverpool
I spoke about dating a little bit in my last post. Despite my 2019 being about as date filled as a blank calendar (that's trying to be funny talk for non-existent), I thought I'd round up some boss date spots in Liverpool, whether you're a local or you just fancy a trip here one time!… Continue reading Boss date spots in Liverpool
Twenty one things I learned being 21
At the end of last month, I turned 22. It's scary to think how fast life is going, as it only feels like yesterday I sat my exams or I turned 16. Twenty two sounds insane, at once I'm still young but I feel like my "young days" are far, far away. It's weird really,… Continue reading Twenty one things I learned being 21
Post uni life: 3 months on
Three months ago, after three years of non-stop reading, writing and stressing out, I donned an expensive and painful black cap to collect my first class degree in English. It was one of the most nerve wracking and exciting moments of my life, and I'm so glad I got to that point considering (at various… Continue reading Post uni life: 3 months on
Body positivity
During Blogtober, I've posted about anything and everything (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) and I'm not stopping. I was going to post this yesterday but, honestly, I just wasn't feeling "myself". I know I'm not society's "ideal woman". I don't simultaneously have good boobs and virtually no body fat. I don't "like… Continue reading Body positivity
