Hey Guys x I can't believe it's already the end of February, it seems like yesterday it was 2015! Anyway, I have a lot of things to share with you this month that I've been loving, so I'm gonna get started! This is without a doubt the most favourites I've ever had! I hope you enjoy seeing my favourites and I hope some of them become your favourites! Favourite Film: Do You Believe Don't be put off by the fact that this film looks religious - I am not religious at all and I loved it! It's about 12 different people, and the way that their lives all interconnect due to their varying life circumstances and their opinions about religion. Off the top of my head, these 12 include a priest, an atheist doctor, a homeless mother, a criminal and a pregnant teenager. This film is incredible, I mean, I've never cried harder at a film than I have watching this for the first time. Definitely give it a chance, even if you're not religious, as I'm not. ...

Hey Guys x Sorry I didn't post yesterday, I just had a really bad day! Anyway, I used my bad day to finally finish Zoe Sugg's latest novel, Girl Online On Tour. I've written a post about YouTuber books, so it's a bit ironic that this is the first book I'm reviewing in 2016! I reviewed the first Girl Online book, which you can see here . You might want to read that first because this book follows on from the first one. I just noticed that my first book reviews of both 2015 and 2016 have been Zoe's books. Anyway, let me get on with the review. I'm assuming that you know about Girl Online so, if you don't, this review might contain spoilers. Penny is back! And this time, everything's different. Penny's about to go on tour with Noah. Yes, following Brooklyn Boy around Europe seems like the best thing in the world! However, Penny soon finds that tour life isn't everything she thought it would be. She's alone, worried, and has no ...

Hey Guys x YouTubers writing books has become a thing within the last 2 years, and it's quite a controversial thing! It's a topic that I've wanted to talk about for a while because I have some quite strong views on it, from both points of view. I also want to get your opinions on it because it's such an interesting topic! So, I am not on any particular side with this debate, because I can see both points of view about YouTubers writing books. I also need to point out that I don't see Carrie Hope Fletcher's book as a 'YouTuber book' - to me, she's an author. I think YouTubers writing books is great - on the one hand, as a viewer. These people have a lot of really young viewers, some as young as under 11. Because of this, these books can be the things that get these children to enjoy reading, which - as a bookworm - I think is really important! And I also think it's a good business. Many celebrities write (or have ghostwritten) auto...

Hey Guys - Happy Valentine's day! x And as it's Valentine's day, I thought that I'd do a special 'Monthly' music playlist, all about this day! By this, I mean that I'm going to show you some of my favourite love songs, which gives me the chance to listen to as many love songs as possible! Let me know what songs you like to listen to on Valentine's day! Love Me Like You Do - Ellie Goulding I re-watched 'Fifty Shades Of Grey' the other day and I completely loved it! It also made me fall back in love with this song, which I think is just so romantic and lovely. Definitely listen to this if you haven't already! Single Ladies - Beyonce This is a definite cliche of mine, but I still love it. And as I'm eternally single, this is the perfect song to listen to, particularly if you don't want to hear all the lovey-dovey romance music that will be filling the radios (and this playlist!) today! Love You More - JLS When J...

Hey Guys x Recently, Jack Howard made a video talking about YouTube. In the video (which you can watch above!) he said that he doesn't feel stimulated by typical 'popular' content, and he feels like he doesn't belong on YouTube anymore as a viewer. So I thought that I would respond to his video, because I have a few thoughts about this topic that I'd love to discuss with some of my own readers. First of all, I completely understand and agree with what Jack is saying about 'popular' content, and it's something that I've thought for a while too. I still subscribe to many 'mainstream' YouTubers (And when I say 'Mainstream', I mean team gleam, i.e. Zoe and Marcus etc with over 1 million subs) because I fell in love with their content in 2014. However, I'm finding that, more and more often, videos sit in my sub box unwatched because either I'm not interested in what they have to say, or I've seen the same kind of v...

Hey Guys x I love romance movies so much! I love the idea of imagining myself in all of the different romantic situations, as well as fantasizing about the heroes! So I put together a list of my favourite romance movies that I thought you guys might like to watch, or that I think you should watch! I'll also include their trailers, so be sure to watch them! 10: Romeo and Juliet At 10, we have this classic! I first saw it when I was studying Romeo and Juliet for my GCSE's, and I fell in love with it, because it was just so beautiful. I quite like Shakespearean language anyway, I find it quite beautiful, so watching it rather than reading it was really nice. It's the classic love story about a couple who meet, get together, get married, and die for each other within three days! Even if you're not studying this, definitely watch it, particularly the Leonardo Dicaprio version! 9. Sleepless in Seattle This is quite an old movie, but it's so good! I...

Hey Guys x It's Favourites time once again! This month hasn't been the best in terms of favourites, I've been loving the same things that I loved in December, so there's not that many new things to talk about! I hope you enjoy seeing what I've been loving this month! Favourite Movie: Shelter I have spoken about this film so much in January that I can't talk about it again! But because I loved it so much, I couldn't not put it as this month's favourite film. I'll link the review I did here so that I don't have to write out the whole thing again! Favourite TV Show: The Inbetweeners I have been obsessed with this in January. I watch all three seasons in 3 days! It's about these four British boys who go to sixth form, and are basically on a mission to have fun and have sex, not necessarily in that order! But it's so hilarious! The language is a bit graphic, but I love that about it! Just don't watch it whe...
