16 Ways to Beat a Cold

Jan 26, 2019 ~ Ellen ~ 3 Comments

I am conscious that I haven't posted on here in a while and I've had a cold all week and I think it's finally reached my brain because I decided to try shitposting. I normally reserve this for Facebook or my various WhatsApp group chats but 2019 is all about trying new things so here … Continue reading 16 Ways to Beat a Cold

I've been ready for battle since day one 💀⚔️

New tattoo, who dis? 🌙 I wrote about getting my first tattoo in my latest blog post x

I'm so excited! My backer rewards for the @heikala art book on @kickstarter arrived today 😻 The book itself is crazy beautiful, and I can't wait to read through it. I absolutely adore all the cute stretch goal rewards, including a foiled notebook, an enamel pin, washi tape, a print, and some super cute stickers (these are literally all my favourite things, with my favourite artist all over them!!) Today is a very good day 💖

If you like poetry, mythology, asexual representation, or all of the above, you'll love Goddess of the Hunt by @briseisbooks! Check out my review on The Star Jar, link in bio x

Happy Galentine's Day! 💖💕 Since today is all about female friendship, I've done a lil photoshoot with one of my gal pals for the Dead Girls book tour. ❤️ Dead Girls is a fab book by @abigailtarttelin_ that I read last year. In it, 11-year-old Thera Wilde is driven to extremes when her best friend is found dead. We would all go pretty far for our friends - but how far is *too* far? 💛 I absolutely loved this book. The characters, setting, and story are all eerily believable - you could easily imagine the events of this book unfolding in the real world. Some parts of Dead Girls are super uncomfortable to read, but in a good crime-thrillery kind of way. [Content note: due to the nature of this story, there are some triggers for r*pe and murder] 💚 Dead Girls is full of 90s nostalgia, delightfully unlikeable female characters (more of this please, book world!), and just a pinch of the supernatural. I cannot recommend this book enough. The paperback is out now from @picadorbooks, so go get yerself a copy! 💙 There are loads of reviews being posted for the book tour today, so if you want to find out more about Dead Girls, check out these fab bookstagrammers: 💜 @backpackandbooks @notmaudgonne @theshelfldn @booksnbees @thelastredhead_ @lovedreadingthis @shelfobsessed @starjarblog @eastofreaden @foreverreadingfiction @ejmellow @slowreadersclub @altygirl_reads @fleurishes @avidreaderdiary

I wrote about the fab evening I had at @secretpowerband's EP launch the other week! Including great performances from @whitelandsband and @lizardlizardhorsehorse 🎵🎶 Link in bio x
