Review: Heartburn by Nora Ephron
4.5/5 ☕ | Heartburn is a short but sweet offering from the patron saint of romantic comedies which follows a food writer who, while in her seventh month of her second pregnancy, discovered that her husband is in love with another woman. 40 years into it’s publication and I feel like it still holds up.

4.4/5☕ | My recent audiobook streak has given yet another cosy mystery series to obsess about: The Coffeehouse Mystery Series. It took a while before I got to actually read this friend recommendation, but I absolutely loved it when I did!

Review: The People in the Trees by Hanya Yanagihara
5/5☕ | The People in the Trees slowly morphed into this thing that I can’t stop thinking about. And now, I am convinced that each second of it was intentional. It reads as it feels: suffocating, fascinating, disturbing.

Review: 84, Charing Cross Road by Helene Hanff
4/5☕ | There’s a very comforting element to 84, Charing Cross Road – the way it feels like the sort of story you read when you’re having a bad day: like a cup of hot chocolate or a warm blanket on a cold morning.

Reading Diary: 9 Thoughts I Had While Reading Anxious People by Fredrik Backman
My reading experience for Anxious People, admittedly, has been a very personal one. This reading diary might not make sense to other people – but for me, reading this has been a very transformative and emotional affair.
