LIZZIE READS…STARDUST
#LizzieReads Stardust – Neil Gaiman Upon looking on my (now favourite) Goodreads app, I saw that this book has rave reviews. It has been sat on my Kindle from the moment I got it about 5 years ago and I have finally managed to read it – in quick succession indeed! The first page instantly hit me [...]
A CHANGE OF BLOG
you may have noticed a few more #LizzieReads posts have been published recently. and I will admit there are even MORE coming your way! the fact is that I ADORE reading. And, I can't believe I hadn't made use of goodreads, a platform for rating, reviewing and keeping track of books you have read. I [...]
LIZZIE READS…CONVERSATIONS WITH FRIENDS
Conversations with Friends - Sally Rooney #LizzieReads Sally Rooney’s debut novel. I consumed this book in a matter of days, as I did Normal People, immersed by her writing style which I know can irritate some readers due to its lack of punctuation on speech. The idea is that the reader interprets what is being said [...]

MY NEW FAVE SCENT – MOSCHINO TOY2
Moschino Toy2 This week I bring you a recent purchase of mine that to be honest, I bought on a whim which I rarely do with perfumes! I'd heard of Moschino Toy2 briefly - who can forget a cute bottle like this! Luckily, I found it on Boots for half price, so I ended up [...]
A REVIEW – WAKE UP! PIERS MORGAN
a controversial being for this week's post: Piers Morgan. probably a marmite person for most people. I've always been intrigued by Morgan, initially hating his attitude and interviewing style. however, since growing up and viewing him more in the media, I have come to somewhat admire and agree with his style. he gets to the [...]
REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD BE USING A MENSTRUAL CUP
Image: BeYou online One word: SUSTAINABILITY. For the planet and your wallet. for some this may be a TMI subject, but I think it is important that we talk about these kinds of topics more often to avoid such stigmas. this little accomplice has become a very handy part of my life every month, saving [...]
