PRETTY YOUNG THING

I've had my Kindle for years and years and it's one of the best things i've ever bought. I love reading and can read a book really fast. I'm a lover of a good thriller, I love abit romance and a happy ending. Some of my favourite books include The Girl on the Train, The Fifty Shades series, I like Sophie Kinsella books and Cecelia Ahearn.

What I love most about my Kindle is that I can keep downloading books and they are all there waiting to be read. I don't have to worry about bringing a particular book out with me or worry about how i'm going to fit those books in my bag/suitcase. I find E Books easier to read than books especially on my Kindle, it's just so easy to use. I have read E Books on my iPad too but prefer my Kindle.

Although I do love a good paperback I tend to buy Ebooks as i'm more likely to read it as i'll often have my kindle in my bag but popping a book in my bag isn't something i'll think about. I've got a new job so will be commuting, i'm so excited to read some books on my journey. I think that all authors should create Ebooks as I think i'm not alone and that people love how easy it is to download a book and read it right away. I think E Books are great for lots of other businesses too not just Authors, you can easily make an Ebook on Designrr.io They have a huge range of templates to help you create the perfect book.

I haven't read any books in a while as I don't really find the time to read now i've had Amelia but as I mentioned above i've got a new job and will be commuting so i'm going to try and read more on the train and on my break at work as reading is something I really love to do but just don't really have time to do. Send over any book recommendations, I tend to look on Amazon and WHSmith in the Ebook charts to get some ideas of books to buy or sometimes i'll ask over on twitter for recommendations.

Did you know that today is National Stress Awareness Day? I though i'd share some tips and tricks on how I de-stress! I stress about alot of things and worry about things that I shouldn't really worry about so I find these methods help me to chill and relax.

1. Reading, I like to get all cosy and snug in bed and read a good book. I also have this mindfulness journal which I picked up in The Works which I sometimes read and complete a few activities. This helps to calm me and distract my mind.


2. Get a colouring book! You can pick up a colouring book from anywhere, your local supermarket or pound shop. These are really relaxing and just take your mind off reality. I use mine all the time. It's nice to just listen to some music and colour in for a little while, even if it's just 10 minutes whilst you make your breakfast.


3. Watch a film or series: I love getting into my pj's and watching a good film or series, I love Netflix because it has so much to choose from. We've been watching American Horror Story which is soo good! If you haven't watched it yet you can check out this article which breaks it all down for you , A guide to American Horror Story. I'd really recommend it! I really want to start a new series, I think we're gonna watch Black Mirror next.  We also go out to the cinema alot because we both love to watch films! If you check out My Voucher Codes they always have offers and vouchers to visit the cinema for less!



5. Bath time! One of my favorite ways to relax and chill is by having a bath. I light some candles and get a Lush Bath bomb and relax. I'll soak in the bath for ages and sometimes I pop a face mask on and take a cup of tea in with me to unwind and think about nothing.
