Newsletter #4 Mar 2024
A newsletter catch up as I head into my week off work.
Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky
An incredible feat of imagination! Just such a cool idea. I never thought I’m be so interested in spiders... - 🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️ 4/5 Spiders
Reading Roundup: February 2024
Five books read in February, and a few I'm looking at reading next.
The No-Show by Beth O’Leary
Not the story the cover would have you believe, with a twist predictable from the start. - 🤷🏻🤷🏻 2/5 Shrugs
Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier
An understandable Classic but just not in a flavour that I enjoy! - 👻👻👻 3.5/5 Dead Wives
Newsletter #3 Feb 2024
Feeling a little deflated in February despite some big achievements. We redecorated the bedroom, I learned sudoku, sobbed through One Day and started Hogwarts Legacy.
We Spread by Iain Reid
⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 Stars - A challenging bit of weird fiction with strong themes. Deliciously, wide open for your own interpretation!
I Thought It Was Just Me (But It Isn’t) by Brené Brown
An interesting topic but felt a bit too American, and focused on research findings rather than actionable advice. Her later books are probably a better starting point. - ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5 Stars
Sudoku is actually quite easy
This is another one to add to the list of "things I didn't see myself enjoying." 🤓
Drinks after work
My new colleagues are quietly amazing 🍻
