Now, I've mentioned the film before, but now I'm going to chat about the book! I  am talking of course, about The Princess Bride by William Goldman :) If you love the film, with its love and swordplay, it's prince, revenge and miracle making, you will definitely love the book.  Go on, give it a go! :) Picture by Joey Paur.

Another random fact...

Hi! People with epilepsy are just that: they are people. With epilepsy comes misunderstandings. Epileptics do not swallow their tongues, are not always 'retarded' and can lead perfectly normal lives. Men, women and children suffer with epilepsy. It can start at any age and for any reason, whether it be from illness, injury or from an unknown cause.  :)

Top Study Tips!

Bonjour! :) Today my post is all about getting back in the swing of things, and by that I mean the 'school' thing. Because (let's be honest) everyone seems to have that September feeling when it comes to education and studying.

Also buy any paper, ink, files and pens etc. before

I've had a lot of fun designing some of them :) Always x

Hi guys! I know! I haven't written anything in ages. To tell the truth, I've been busy writing book number three and reading some new books!  The Naughty Girls' Book Club by Sophie Hart is something I promised to review for you all.  So here it is... You won't be disappointed ! Book Description:  A quaint suburb. A quiet little book club. A very naughty reading list.
