Trigger Mortis – 50’s Bond at his best..
So, I've just finished my very first Bond Book. Trigger Mortis. Yes, it is a cracking title! Bond is back from defeating Goldfinger and has Pussy Galore in tow. He is suave, misogynistic, narcissitic, dashing and saves the world (again). I enjoyed the book and found myself laughing my head…
Holiday Read #2 Song of the Sea Maid
I wasn't quite sure how I was going to go with this book and as I write this review, i'm still not sure. Some parts infuriated me. The book begins with a young street urchin in 18th Century London who has a brother (at least she thinks he is her…

20 Years Since Mrs Mia Wallace
Can you believe that Pulp Fiction is 20 years old? I remember going with my school mates to see this movie after hearing the buzz that this was 'the coolest movie ever'. The boys were excited about the drug scene, re-enacting Samuel L Jackson's infamous Bible quote in the lunch room and…
Living behind a screen doesn’t mean you should look like an Ork…..
I am someone who has worn their make-up the same way since I was eighteen years old. Eyeliner, smudge with a bit of brown shadow, a lick of mascara and then out the door. My night time look involves thicker eyeliner, two smudges of brown eyeshadow and a swipe of…
Book Review – Skinjob by Bruce McCabe
I first learned of Skinjob at the Book Bloggers forum which Penguin Random House held in April. Bruce McCabe was at the forum where he spoke briefly about his book journey and I knew, out of the pile of lovey free books I received, this would be my first read.…
The sadness of the selfie….
Is it just me? Am I the selfie Grinch? I'm not sure, but I really feel worried and sad for the selfie obsessed people of this world. Is it healthy to desperately post photos of yourself just to get validation and likes from people you probably never see in person…
