What I’m currently reading | Book series

5th August 2020 Be first to comment

Pin It

So, one I haven’t done for a while; A book post! I absolutely love reading. I love the idea of being able to travel through time and escape reality by simply reading the words of fantastic writers. What a simple yet magical concept. I personally am the kind of person who will either take a few years to read a single book or I will read it within a few days. It’s all down to my current lifestyle and what is taking up my time. Since having so much trauma in my family I have found it really difficult to get in some well deserved ‘Me time’, but recently I have made it my plan to really prioritise getting some time in for myself! One thing on the top of my list is to read more, so that’s exactly what I’ve done.

With my mind being so constantly active with thoughts and ideas, I’m the kind of person who loves immersing myself into a good book and becoming part of it with the characters. I visualise the way the setting and people look and I love to make the story part of my daily life by incorporating ‘Me time’ into each day tucking into a good book. 

I’m also the kind of person who enjoys reading multiple genres and sometimes all at once as I simply can’t decide which genre I’m in the mood for. I have set aside a few books from different genres and have been really enjoying using them for different moods. So here goes! My current reads.

Sleeping beauties - Stephen King & Owen King

I have only recently started reading this book but am absolutely stuck to it! It is my current horror read and I’m so glad I picked it up. I was just walking up the stairs one day and glanced at the books on our bookshelf and saw my horror collection. It sparked this fire in me that wanted to dive into a horror as I’m always watching horror films but never really read many in the recent years. 

I walked past it a few more times before deciding to start it. Boy am I glad I did! It has become my bath and before bed read and it’s fit in nicely into my perfect evening routine.

It’s most certainly a harder read than other books in my collection. It’s long and the chapters are super lengthy, being split into parts for separate characters of the story so I have to make sure to read it without too many long breaks otherwise I forget the characters and stories, but other than that I absolutely love it! It’s fun to read and every chapter leaves me wanting more and more. It’s definitely an immersive read. I most certainly recommend it to those horror and Stephen king fans.

An edited life - Anna Newton

This book is one that I go back to every so often. It’s a more laid back kind of read that inspires me to keep organised and keep on top of my life, work and home. Anna is such a cool person. She is super lovely, talented and really inspires me in my work, every day life and in keeping things clear and organised. I read this when I want something closer to reality whilst still diving into a good book. 

With me being the kind of person who loves working from home and keeping on top of life, this book is a great one to keep in my bookshelf for when I need some tips and advice. I most certainly recommend this to anyone who doesn’t fancy a fictional book at the moment.

Ninja school mum - Lizzie Chantree

This book I will confess I have been reading for AGES! – I absolutely love it and am 73% into on my Amazon fire hehe. It is a book of humour, fantasy and romance and is just so unique. I’ve never read a book like it and the main character really does make me feel inspired to become an ultimate badass b*tch. 

The author is an amazing lady who runs Creative biz hour over on Twitter each Monday and she has made me feel so welcomed. I started joining the chat a few years ago and it is just such a lovely evening networking hour full of creative and talented people. 

I cannot wait to read the ending to see how it goes, but at the same time I don’t want it to end! If you enjoy books that inspire you to be awesome, definitely read this.

Thank you for reading. What are your current reads? Let me know in the comments.

Stay wonderful!

One of my favourite feel good outfits from March 🥰 It was chilly but sunny so I took the opportunity to pop on a lovely @sheinofficial polka dot dress and @nastygal glitter jumper with my all time fave cardigan also from Nasty Gal! 

I've definitely noticed the power of colour recently and the positive impact clothing has on us when we use them right. 

When I say 'use them right' I mean:

* Wearing clothes that make us feel good

* Using clothing to set the mood for the day for example; A work day, a night out, date night or a cosy day in

* Using colours to help our minds - There is something psychological about colour which I find fascinating!

* Wearing clothes that we don't feel insecure in. Creating a wardrobe where everything fits how we like and we don't have any anxiety about 'losing weight to fit into it'

Fashion is like makeup. It gives us the freedom to express ourselves and embrace our bodies and personalities! 

Some of my fave fashionistas:

@meganellaby 
@inthefrow 
@molliemunroquirk 
@bykatieeve 
@plussizeabi 
@imlaurengreen 
@poppyadams 
@chloeincurve_ 

So many more but I'll save them for another day 🌻

Just a friendly reminder that we all have messy ha Just a friendly reminder that we all have messy hair and slow mornings most days!

Let your natural hair flow, your natural skin shine and your mind go through it's emotions without self judgement.

Take the day as slow or fast as you need. 

Take a non uniform day and get cosy with your feet up on the sofa

Take a day without makeup if you like

Binge on your fave TV shows or dive into a good book for one chapter (or two or three or four...or five)

You're human. Not everything has to be perfect and straight. Do what you gotta do.

Happiness, Lifestyle and all things wonderful.
I always say that the most important thing in life is happiness, therefore that is what I'd like to share.
I'm an honest, kind and happy person who loves sharing my experiences and real stories to help others like me realise they are not alone in this huge world.
I'm a huge supporter of mental health and body positivity and believe we can change the way society is about these topics together.
Just a small girl in a big world trying to be happy!

This is a very difficult experience for me. I have a qualification in professional music and was in a band gigging and singing professionally. It was and is my life but when my mental health went down hill, so did my confidence in myself. I stopped singing publicly and lost faith in rekindling my love for it but now here I am. 

I'm a little rusty and out of practise but here it is. My first singing video.
