Bria Lou Reviews

This is something that I have wanted to talk about for a long time, but I haven't known how to explain it well, so I've decided that I'm just going to go for it! Do ever get those times when you remember something from the past that was embarrassing or made you feel anxious, and by this random memory popping into your head at a random time, you feel the embarrassment or anxiety about the situation all over again? This is me at least 10 times a week. I hate these moments because, having anxiety anyway on a regular basis is bad enough, but embarrassment is something that I can't handle. I hate feeling embarrassed and can never deal with it well, it is the worst emotion that I can feel. I call these moments 'Carrie Moments'. This is because Carrie Hope Fletcher was the first person who I could identify with about this. She made a video and spoke about her reminiscing about all the embarrassing and silly things that she had done over the years, and she was t...

I have been writing 'favourites' posts throughout three seasons! I started in spring, made it through summer and am now in autumn! Favourites posts are some of my favourite posts to do because it allows me to recommend things to you guys that aren't books! As much as I love books, these posts allow me to recommend films and TV shows and youtubers and I love doing that! Favourite Movie: Horrible Bosses   I know this film didn't come out this month, but I only saw it for the first time about 2 weeks ago, and I can honestly say that it is the best and funniest film that I have seen this year! If you haven't seen it (and are 17 or over, many sexual references) you have to see this film! Even if you don't think you will find it funny, give it a chance, because I was so pleasantly surprised!   Favourite TV Show: F.R.I.E.N.D.S   Last week marked the 20th anniversary of F.R.I.E.N.D.S, which has prompted me to re-watch some of my favourite episodes a...

As of yesterday (26th September) I have been writing my blog for 5 whole months! I never expected to love blogging as much as I do and the excitement I get while planning and writing each post is something that I haven't experienced while doing anything else. As an introvert, blogging gives me a way of expressing anything and everything that I want to talk about, and if you too are an introvert, I urge you to give blogging a try. I've said 'Thank You' to you guys a lot this month, so I'm going to try not to say it again. But I hope you know that your read, comment or follow means the complete world to me and, even if I never achieve any more followers, comments or views again, I will continue to blog because I just love it so much! So, I was looking for a tag to do to celebrate 5 months, and I found one on http://clairefarrellauthor.com/blog/ . There are 48 questions and I'm going to answer them here! Feel free to answer them yourselves and leave your l...

  I am in the midst of planning a really fun 'Girl Talk' post. I wanted to put it up today, but with college work and getting home later and later, I had to substitute it and change the weeks around, so look forward to next weeks post! (It may or may not involve Disney)   Gossip. I made this a 'Girl Talk' post because, although boys probably gossip too, we all know that girls do it more. And while boys do it in an innocent way, there are a few (OK, a lot) of us girls who gossip in a malicious way.   Personally, I think gossip is ok, and innocent a lot of the time. If you and your friend talk about the people that you come into contact with, whether about something they've done or something they've worn, I think gossip is harmless, in certain circumstances. I obviously don't think gossip is 100% bad all the time, and I don't think anyone could, as we probably all do it, and we can't be hypocrites. But there is a point where gossip beco...

Before I start this review, oh my gosh, this is my 25th review! I've done quarter of 100 reviews! Thanks if you've read, at least one of my reviews, it means a lot. Especially as books are probably my number 1 passion in life, just as writing is!     I am a huge fan of Giovanna Fletcher. I've said this so many times so I'm not going to repeat how much I love her, but I think I love this book as much as I love her! One of my favourite things about it is the front cover. I find the colours really calming and, although I don't like to judge books by their covers, but the covers really entice me to pick up a book and read it, they attract me. And although I would have bought this book no matter what the cover looked like, the cover just made me want to read it immediately!   This book is about Maddy, Rob and Ben, the tripod, as they call themselves. They're the ultimate threesome, best friends from the age of 9 and nothing was going to change. 17 years...
