March Wrap Up
We LOVE reading other people’s round ups of their month of reading, so we thought we’d share what we’ve loved and not-so-loved this month in our bookish world. We’ve had a really good response so far to these monthly posts so Thank You x
Read More »Complexion Perfection by Kate Somerville
Two of my favourite things in one: It’s a book… on beauty!
I discovered Kate Somerville last summer when her products launched in the UK on Cult Beauty and around the same time she was a guest on the Oraccle of Skincare, Caroline Hirons YouTube channel, and it was in this video that Kate’s book ‘Complexion Perfection’ was mentioned.

Goodreads synopsis
Read More »Adam Kay was a junior doctor from 2004 until 2010, before a devastating experience on a ward caused him to reconsider his future. He kept a diary throughout his training, and This Is Going to Hurt intersperses tales from the front line of the NHS with reflections on the current crisis. The result is a first-hand account of life as a junior doctor in all its joy, pain, sacrifice and maddening bureaucracy, and a love letter to those who might at any moment be holding our lives in their hands.
One Summer In Paris – Sarah Morgan
Sarah Morgan is the author of the Snow Crystal Trilogy, a series of books that I read every Christmas because they are just such heartwarming fab reads. When I saw that One Summer in Paris was coming out I thought I’d give it a go, see if her summer offering was as good as the festive fayre I favour from her.

Instead, go and read it, right now! I’ll wait……

Happy World Book Day everyone!
A day dedicated to books – when your other half can’t shout at you for buying a stack of books, even though your TBR is 500 books long and your book cases are overflowing with unread books. A day when you don’t have to feel guilty for ignoring the pile of dishes in order to read just a few more pages.
Does anyone else treat today like a massive GREEN LIGHT to buying any and all the books?
