Lauren Graham – Talking As Fast As I Can
I was a late-comer to the world of Gilmore Girls, I’d heard of it of course, but only started to watch it when it came to Netflix last year. And what’s not to like, a program about an independent woman and her equally independent daughter, who just so happens to love books… I binge watched…

Sue Perkins – Spectacles
I didn’t really know much about Sue Perkins apart from the things I’ve seen her in on TV, but this book was being advertised on Kindle at 99p, and as I had really enjoyed the things I’d seen her in, I thought it would be an interesting read. And I wasn’t disappointed. My reading of…

Anna Kendrick – Scrappy Little Nobody
This book encompasses two things that I love. Autobiographies and Anna Kendrick.

Review: Brad Paisley – Diary of a Player
I’ve been wanting to read this book since it first came out a couple of years ago, but I’d never been able to justify the price (with it being an American book and not widely available in the UK). But my brother bought me it for Christmas this year and I couldn’t wait to get…

Review: James Corden – May I Have Your Attention, Please?
I do love reading a good autobiography, getting a glimpse into someone’s life is always pretty cool, and for someone as funny as James Corden, I knew I was in for a treat. I was expecting to be laughing the entire way through the book, but James was refreshingly honest about the harder times in…
