News

Hubs and I came down with the stomach flu, or norovirus, for over a week, and in that time I felt too poorly to do anything except lie in bed and watch Netflix and Stan. Other than that, it was just the daily grind of work, rest, and recreation. Quite an average month. I didn’t even buy any books! It must be a first for me.

Monthly Wrap Up

Book Reviews:

I mostly read kind of average books this month – enjoyable, but missing that certain je ne sais quoi.

[5 Oct] The Rest of Us Just Live Here by Patrick Ness ★★★
[17 Oct] The Princess Diaries by Meg Cabot ★★★
[19 Oct] Ice Like Fire by Sara Raasch ★★★
[23 Oct] A Thousand Nights by E.K. Johnston ★★
[29 Oct] Incurable by John Marsden ★★★★

Films/TV I Watched

I did watch a lot of films this month, again because I was sick. I do recommend that everyone watch Inside Out – I found it quite confronting, but it does show a really good representation of what it is like to suffer from depression.

G.B.F
Princess Protection Program
Happily Never After
Wreck-it Ralph
Mr Peabody and Sherman
Khumba
Inside Out
Just Friends
Walking Tall
Clueless
Pokemon: The Rise of Darkrai
The Nanny
Friends
Pokemon Black and White
iZombie – my husband was really keen to binge watch this on his days off work, so I only ended up watching the first few episodes.
Scream the TV show – I managed the first two episodes.
