A new series where I attempt to actually read what a own. We love to see it. This is TBR Takedown.

These fairytale retellings did not bring me magic, trust or pixie dust. Hear me not enjoy "The Kingdom is a Golden Cage" and "Cinderella is Dead", and let us both pray for February's books.

A new series? After being away for so long? The cheek.

"Dating" your best friends is so important, Beth and I found ourselves only seeing each other when we were filming or to sit down and eat our weeks pay on M&S food.
We were missing that self-care element of your friendship, so we put a day aside every month and called it the "Sunflower Diaries".
Sunflowers are people who you cross paths with and they instantly make you feel calm and alive at the same time, hence the name 🌻
So welcome to the first short after our date to the zoo, for some drinks and no otters or gibbons (heartbreaking really).

We did it again... I guess let us take you back to March. Welcome back to Live, Laugh Literary Fiction!

A romance read that was topical at the time, we promise!

"One Day" by David Nicholls made us sob, sing Les Mis, and finally got Syd to rate something a 10.

Grab a drink, alcoholic or not, and hear how the only thing we want in life is to be a fly on the wall.

Happy April! And happy baking!

We baked a cake. It did not go well. Then we ended up in a pub and rambled on about the following things:

Imagine we have set the scene, you can hear the pub noise behind you. You have got your drink of choice and we are having a catch up. Enjoy.

Another potential disappointment? Not faring well in the Book Club picks so far.

Beth O'Leary's A Wake-Up Call should have ticked all of our romance loving boxes, so we needed to introduce a different way to rate. Please welcome:

Grab a drink, alcoholic or not, and listen to Syd try to explain why a DNF really does mean "do not f*ck (with)".

Ooooooo romance did you treat me better than YA.

This is The Lit List - where I read the Goodreads 2023 Award Winners and decide if they are worth the hype.

It was a mixed bag this month after reading both "Love Theoretically" and "You, Again". But for now and evermore, Ali Hazelwood and I ae joined at the hip.

Happy February and Happy Valentine's Day!

All I can tell you about this episode is that we were sat on Beth's bed drinking some of the worse wine I have had in years. My younger self never thought I would be saying that!

Grab a drink, alcoholic or not, and listen with your loved ones. Be that your cat, yourself, or your other half.
