Life


The last couple of weeks have been extremely busy. Thankfully I did have a Christmas break and I will be home next week as well. It's some much needed time to relax a little, although I seem to have some trouble to actually relax.


Blog and books


This week I read The Afterlife of Holly Chase and I loved it! It was a fun Christmas read! 

I'm currently reading Circe by Madeline Miller and I'm really enjoying it. I also got this book as a New Year's Eve present to my grandmother. 

Movies and TV Shows


This week I watched Star Wars: The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi. Tonight, I'm going to the cinema to watch the final film, I'm very excited to see how it all will end but I'm also a little nervous. Have you watched the last film?

I also watched A Simple Favor which was fun but not that great. I'm now obsessed with the song Bonnie and Clyde, though.


I also started watching The Witcher yesterday, really enjoying it so far. I can't wait to read the books as well. Have you read them?


What did you read or watch recently?

Life


I have been feeling quite depressed for the last week or longer. This is mainly caused by an awful situation at work, which still hasn't been completely solved. In addition to a very exhausting working schedule and badly being in need of break, I haven't felt that great lately. I'm hoping this will change soon, so I can have more time to read and feel like myself again.

In other news, I'm so ready for Christmas! My tree is up and I have already received my TBTB Secret Santa package! She delivered it in person, which was awsome!

Blog and books


I finished Queen of Nothing last weekend and I really enjoyed it! I do wish the book was longer, I wouldn't have minded a 500 page book :) I'm really going to miss some of these characters.

Movies and TV Shows


I didn't really watch any tv shows the last couple of weeks but this weekend I did watch three films: Shazam (which was a lot of fun!), Instant Family and The Book of Love. I'm getting in the mood to watch some Christmas films! Which ones are your favourites? I quite like While You Were Sleeping and It's a Wonderful Life. I can always use more recommendations!
