Heartless by Marissa Meyer . Review

I really loved Alice In Wonderland and this book was such fun getting to know the short tempered Queen of Hearts who is known as a  character to instil fear . The book takes us to before she was the queen , just a lovely young woman who loved to bake , with dreams of having her own bakery and a love of her choosing .  Pressure from her family to marry well and abandon all her dreams puts a new spin on this Queens backstory . I really enjoyed how determined she was to love , and live how she wanted despite everything that was going on . Reading this story is a bit like reading Alice in Wonderland , there is a slight sense of everything being a little off centre , full of quirks and entertaining characters . I recommend this to all

The State Of Grace by Rachael Lucas . Review

This was an intriguing story about a teenager called Grace who has Aspergers . Not being familiar with Aspergers this was a fascinating look into the life of a teenager who had experience with this . I love that we see the story from Grace's perspective so we see how it effects her day to day life at school and hear the thoughts and fears going around in her head as she interacts with others , and how everyday pressure and stress effect her and what helped her during those times . Grace is a sweet girl with a big heart who loves her family and friends and animals but I think she struggled with her dad not being around much which felt like it made her more anxious . This was an awesome story with a delightful and inspirational main character . I would recommend this book to everyone.

My Week

Well guys the past ten days ... give or take ... have been painful , annoying , terrifying and exhausting . I got laryngitis between Christmas and New Year then I was in and out of hospital via ambulance etc where they found infections , high temperatures , gallstones , anaemia etc . I was really nauseated , pains everywhere , vomiting , exhausted , eating hardly anything , bruises from all the needles and iv's , headaches that would just not quit and wishing for it all to bugger off . 

Home now and resting I missed my books and journaling sooo much . Journaling could have helped me feel a bit better but I was just not up to it, even going to the bathroom a nurse had to go with me . So anyway , enough about all that ... Let's talk about what I am hoping to read this week ...pg. it's a real mixed bag of genres but that's what makes it all the more fun .

Reading This Week

After a truly really rubbish past week I am sorely in need of some comfort reading ... or to be more precise I will be listening to these books as I am still horribly disgustingly sick and a lovely shade of off white ... actual reading would make the room spin and tilt and my head will feel like it will explode all over my night table. So as I am too nauseated to scrape brain matter off of my night stand here is the books I will be quietly listening to this week.
