‘The Anxiety Solution is your roadmap to a calmer, happier and more confident you.’ I first saw this book on Penguin Platform’s (part of Penguin publishing group) Instagram account. I was immediately attracted to the title and the look of the book. It did not look at all patronising or condescending and I felt that … Continue reading Mini – Review: The Anxiety Solution | Chloe Brotheridge

‘The time to be unfiltered is now.’ I am pretty sure I heard about this book from Lily’s social media. I started following her accounts because I think that she is a young woman with a lot of interesting things to say.

The Year I Met You by Cecelia Ahern Ahern is well known for writing novels that are a bit different and what I love about this one is that the principal story is a friendship.

'All I Know Now is not all that much, but I hope it's enough to help.' In all honesty, I think that the main reason I love this book is because I really like Carrie and the book is just so full of her personality and full of her stories that it almost feels like … Continue reading Mini – Review: All I Know Now | Carrie Hope Fletcher

‘Extroverts can be shy, introverts can be bold, and a condition like anxiety can strike whatever kind of social animal you are.’ I have said before that there are so many great YA books around at the moment, but it is true. My reading list contains so many and this is one that I was … Continue reading Mini – Review: A Quiet Kind of Thunder | Sara Barnard

‘Hilarious, bold and unapologetic, Girl Up sets the record straight.’ Sometimes you read a book like this one, and even though you understand the author's point of view, you just do not agree with them.
