Review: The Morning After Memoirs

October 1, 2015 · Leave a Comment

The Morning After Memoirs is a cross between Bridget Jones' Diary and Sex in The City with plenty of humour, adult issues and poor choices to keep a reader guessing whats next. I found Michael's writing style interesting and the British humour really refreshing. The Morning After Memoirs really highlighted that I don't get to read enough British literature! Jess goes from being a stable woman in a long term relationship to someone who has a drinking problem and a long succession of one night stands. She moves back home, starts drinking more than usual and meets all ... Continue Reading...

Review: Cowgrrl Up: Live

September 20, 2015 · Leave a Comment

When I was a child I was fortunate enough to be part of a family of farmers. I was one of the lucky little girls who asked for a horse and got one. I got to experience, for a short while, what having a horse was like and that fostered a love for  all things equestrian.

Cowgrrl Up: Live was surprisingly adept at capturing snippets of memories from my childhood: smells, sights ... Continue Reading...
