The Girls

  
I recently finished reading the book The Girls by Emma Cline.
I found it dreamy, heady and very human. The words swept me away into the mind of Evie Boyd as she got carried away and entranced by the girls at the ranch and Russell, the centre of everyone's attention. Sex, drugs and incense in the summer of 1969, the ranch was buzzing with rumors. Under the blazing California sun, things were not as they seemed and she starts to feel uncomfortable.    

It starts a little slow, but keep going and you'll find yourself sucked in.

Have an amazing day. xxx

Top 10 Podcast I'm Obsessed With

I have been listening to podcasts for the last few years. It wasn't until last year that I found some really interesting podcasts and got addicted to them. I hope you love them as much as I do.

1. The Black Tapes

Do you believe?

6. Reply All

I can't get enough of this podcast and listen to it a few days a week. If I'm up to date, I delve deep into the archives. Check out the link below.
