Mondays. Everybody loves to hate them. Having always been a massive nerd however, I looked forward to a Monday; Monday meant back to school, the start of a new week, showing off that poster I’d spent hours colouring in on Saturday while my comrades were out on the lash.

BOOK REVIEW: Love That Lasts, by Jeff and Alyssa Bethke
I hate religion, but I love Jesus. You may remember that quote from a YouTube video which went viral a few years back. A guy named Jefferson Bethke was using the spoken word to describe something which I imagine had been on the heart of many Christians for a long time, but no one had…
BOOK REVIEW: The Best Yes, by Lysa TerKeurst
I love reading. If you’re familiar with my blog, or you’ve seen me crouching behind my desk at work, you already know that. And as I grow in my faith and try to figure out how to be a better little human, I love reading books about changing and overcoming obstacles. Something you might not…

My Reading Challenge 2016
Oh hey Internet Peoples! I hope you’re all as beautiful and gorgeous as EVER! Reading books is a very different experience for different people.
