Be The Ultimate Friend Of The Earth – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another beautiful and insightful non-fiction read, this time written by journalist, broadcaster and climate/nature expert, Lucy Siegle!

Blue Haven – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Paradise isn’t for everyone.” This book deserves an award! Or 5! It’s no secret that I adore Lisa King’s writing, and this book has been so easy to love.

Affirmations for Turbulent Times – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “The thoughts we have about ourselves, our lives, and our futures matter. The words we use with ourselves make a difference.” I reached for this book as I was feeling down and exhausted. I haven’t even felt the desire to read fiction for a while, which is so unlike me! Over the…
Nasty Little Cuts – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “She takes shallow breaths. The knife is chilling, but his face is worse.” Oh my GOD.
