Review: The Birds and the Bees *SPOILERS*

Review: The Birds and the Bees *SPOILERS*

The Birds and the Bees by Milly Johnson

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really love how easy Milly’s writing is to read. Like ‘A Summer Fling’, once I really got into the book, I couldn’t put it down. I just wanted to find out how everything would unfold.

Basement @ The Deaf Institute ~ 6th March 2017

Basement @ The Deaf Institute ~ 6th March 2017

Basementare one of my favourite bands and I was so excited when they randomly announced a tour one day. Two nights at the Deaf Institute!! I was so glad to get a ticket to one of the dates – they sold out quickly! On the day of the concert, there was a massive queue outside the venue. I’d never experienced this before because the venue has quite a small capacity. Doors opened quite a lot later…

Film review: Call Me By Your Name *Maybe spoilers?*

Call Me By Your Name film review

I saw the trailer for this film as a YouTube advert and it caught my eye. I went to watch this on my own after running some errands. The cinema screen was completely empty except for me at first, but around 5 people ended up trickling in. I didn’t really know what to expect – except that it was a coming of age romance. The Italian summer backdrop of this movie was beautiful. Perfect blue skies…

Taking Back Sunday @ O2 Ritz ~ 15th February 2017

#TakingBackSunday @ O2 Ritz ~ 15 February 2017 #concertreview

I am really really bad at up-to-date reviews of things, but I still would like to share these experiences. I’d been a casual fan of Taking Back Sunday since hearing MakeDamnSure and My Blue Heaven from the great album, Louder Now (2006). O2 Ritz is one of my favourite venues in Manchester and I was super happy when Frank Iero and the Patience were announced as the support act (MCR being one of my…

Review: A Year at the Star and Sixpence

A Year at the Star and Sixpence by Holly Hepburn My rating: 5 of 5 stars 1. This book definitely kept me hooked from the start. It had a great premise – two sisters receiving a pub from their estranged father. I loved how this book spanned all four seasons. Each section of the book would start with an invitation to a themed event at the pub (such a nice touch!). 2. The setting was wonderful. A…

Me creeping on Colin Firth (Love him! ☺️). Watched Blade Runner 2049, which was really good. Definitely need to watch Kingsman before it’s not in cinemas anymore! • • • #colinfirth #colinfirthisababe #kingsman #kingsmanthegoldencircle #kingsman2 #bladerunner2049 (at ODEON)

Turnover @ Sound Control ~ 27th September 2017

#Turnover @ Sound Control ~ 27 September 2017 #concertreview

On the day of the concert the weather was horrible. It was raining so heavily, I decided to arrive after doors opened so I didn’t have to stand in the rain. Luckily there was only one person ahead of me in the queue when I got to the venue. I really like the merchandise stand at Sound Control because it’s in a convenient place – well,  before the show ends anyway haha. I bought a really cute baby…
