This book was sent to me by the author for review, so all opinions are my own, but thank you to Corey for sending it to me. This is the first novel by Corey Recko, who has written other non-fiction works, which have won some awards. He also writes for some historical magazines and things, …
Estée Lauder has been a big name in beauty for a long time, so when I heard about the Estee Edit, a range of products that claim to be simple, effective and easy to use, I really wanted to try it out. I managed to get my hands on this, the Pink Peony Overnight Water …

Ruby Lennox narrates this story of her life and her family. Funny, startling and often sad, she is the child of a woman who doesn't want kids, and a father who cheats. The book also slips backwards in time to take in the lives of her ancestors and the events that shaped their lives. The …

Flowers are everything. If you spend any time on Instagram you will see them featured in many posts. What is it about them that makes us feel so uplifted and happy? Why are they such a symbol of love and care? Of decadence? I'm not entirely sure, but I love them, and these beauties featured …
Perhaps it's no surprise to find another review of a novel by Daphne Du Maurier on my blog. I love Rebecca so much, as I know a lot of you do too, and I read The House on the Strand a few months back, (you'll find the review for that one HERE). This book is …
