March 2018 Wrap-Up

First of all I want to say I am so sorry guys that I haven’t posted much on my blog this month and that this post is going up late but life has been pretty full on and chaotic so far in April but I promise that over the next few weeks I will have a number of posts going up. So without further ado here is my monthly wrap-up for March, 2018.

– Books –

In March I read a total of 10 books.

1. Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte
2. Four Queens and a Countess by Jill Armitage
3. You Will Not Have My Hate by Antoine Leiris
4. The Friendship Cure by Kate Leaver
5. The Gorgeous Nothings: Emily Dickinson’s Envelope Poems
6. Star Wars: Out Among the Stars Vol.6 by Jason Aaron
7. A Pocketful of Crows by Joanne M. Harris
8. Meddling Kids by Edgar Cantero
9. Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman
10. Brain Freeze by Tom Fletcher

– Favourites –

• My first favourite thing of March was actually the movie Hot Fuzz (its one of my favourites anyways) but I lost count of how many times I watched it in March. It ended up becoming a running joke with my mum because everytime she said what are you watching my answer was always Hot Fuzz. (To the point I wore the disc out and had to buy a replacement one – lol).
• My second favourite thing was actually a book I was sent for review. The book was Meddling Kids by Edgar Cantero (full review to come). It was everything I could ever want in a book: 90s nostalgia, horror, fantasy, classic pop culture touchestones such as Scooby Doo and the Famous Five shot through with Lovecraftian horror (yes please!).
• My third favourite thing of the month was avocado. It is one of my favourite things to eat anyways but for some reason March was the month of avocado for me (lol).
• My fourth favourite thing of March was my birthday (25th March) I turned 24 years old. I had a lovely birthday weekend and birthday meal.
• My fifth favourite thing of the month was the fact I started to journal – its a stream of conscious style journal and its been perfect for the days when I just need to get things out of my head and down on paper.
• My sixth and final favourite of March is a playlist created by Youtuber Kalyn Nicholson on Spotify. I have literally been obsessed with this playlist. Its called: A Southern Spring. Its honestly the only playlist I have listen to all month.
