    Being an Introvert on an Island full of Extroverts

    Good afternoon guys! Hope the new year is treating you well so far! As some of you may have guessed, I’m not the most outgoing person. I’m quite the homebody, I don’t like huge crowds, I’m rarely ever spontaneous and I’m not close with many people; all things that I’m quite happy with, actually. Most…

    Mental Health in Books!

    Good evening everyone! Today I want to talk to you about Mental Health and its representation in books. Mental Health is SO important, and it’s such a shame that a lot of people still seem to find the topic so taboo, or don’t seem to take it seriously. That being said, here are some books…

    Milk and Honey – Rupi Kaur

The imagery present was raw and vivid and her message of self-love and acceptance was very uplifting. It made me stop and…
