You're the one that I want...

Hi guys!!

No unfortunately this is not a Grease themed blog post! Although I really want to do one now I've mentioned it! Hmmm.

This post is all about this amazing book which I finished this morning called You're the one that I want, by Giovanna Fletcher!
If you haven't heard of her already she only has two books out, Billy and Me, the first one she wrote and then this one so we can forgive you! But defiantly check her out! 


I read Billy and Me at the begining of the year and loved it! ( if you would like a review of that let me know) So when she published this one I went straight to Waterstones and picked a copy up! 
This was my holiday book for this year so it automatically holds a special place in my heart, as with any book you take on holiday! It just reminds you of how happy you were! 

Opps, it may have been dropped in the pool a couple of times...

If your looking for an easy romantic book to read then this is perfect for you, it's easy reading although I must warn you very addictive, once you pick it up you won't want to put it down! The story line is brilliant and keeps you guessing the whole way through even up to the last 2 pages where you are asking yourself will she won't she! 


I'm actually super sad that this book is now over because I've become really attached to Maddy, Robert and Ben the three main characters! I really would recommend this book to anyone it's such a great read, a feel good book! 

What audience is the book aimed at?
I would recommend this book to anyone over the age of 14! It's a great book which is relatable to anybody no matter what the age!
Rating out of 5? 
I would give this book 4/5 if not 4.5/5 I don't know why I don't want to give it 5 because I can't find any faults with it and really enjoyed it I just didn't feel it's the best book I've ever read. Although give it a couple of months and i would defo read if again! 

Thank you for reading my review make sure to pop into your local waterstones and pick one up if you haven't already! If you have already read Billy and Me because that is just as fab! 
If you'd like more book reviews please let me know and if you have any book recommendations for me again let me know! 

Thanks for reading! Have a lovely day.

PS- Billy and Me and You're the one that I want are seperate books and not a series, don't think I made that clear!

Hello September

Hola! 
(Guess who's been in Spain...) 

So I am very aware that I am late to the party but I have decided I'm going to do the 'hello different month' blog posts and set myselfs little targets or hopes for each month or maybe just document what is happening in the month! 


Ooooh don't you just love Autumn/ Winter?? I love it!& September marks the beginning of all of that! So here's 10 things I'm looking forward to in September 2014!

1) Blackberrying! 
Every year for the past 5 or 6 years my grandad has taken me blackberrying across the fields in the little village where he and my granny live! I look forward to it every year! If your planning on blackberrying early to middle September is the best time to do so!

2) My Birthday!
On the 28th it's my 18th Birthday! I look forward to my birthday every year but I'm looking forward to it even more this year because I'm going to be 18 and that means (technically) I'm an adult...

3) Driving!
Some of you maybe aware that on the 11th of August I passed my driving test... Finally! However I had such a busy August( which I shall make future blog posts on) I didn't drive really at all and now in September I'm looking forward to being able to drive! 

4) New Beginings
This September a lot of different things are happening in Emily world and lots of different opportunities keep appearing for me and in September I'm going to have to make some very tricky decisions which are worrying me to death trying to decide but I know whichever I pick I shall be happier!

5) Goodbyes
This one isn't a 'look forward to' but it's happening this September so I may as well put it on this post! I have a few very hard goodbyes to say this September. One of my best friends is moving across the globe to Austraila( I'm super jealous) but that means a very sad goodbye for a while. My other best friend is moving away for uni and off to Newcastle which is about 5 hours away from me! It's quite overwhelming knowing both best friends are moving so far away but they're both going for such amazing opportunities so the goodbyes are celebrations too!

6) Autumn Walks!
As much as summer is great, going for walks in the heat is not as fun as wrapping up a bit more or putting a coat on and walking through your local park dragging your feet through the Russelly leaves! I look forward to Autumn walks!

7) Baking!
I've decided that I want to start baking more again in September! I absolutely love baking and used to bake all the time but exam stress and school stress took hold and I haven't for ages so in September I hope that I get my baking buzz back! ( if there's anything you'd like me to bake and blog about leave a comment) 

8) Weekend TV!
Yay! Towards Christmas we always get weekend TV back! With X Factor, Strictly Come Dancing ( which is my fave shhhh) and Sunday night bbc/itv drama's all hitting our tv screens it would be rude not to spend my weekend nights snuggled up watching TV! ( wild teen I know) 

9) Motivation 
After the joys of having summer to frolic around and do nothing for almost 2 months I need my routine back and lots and lots of motivation and I hope in September I start to notice the difference!

10) Happiness 
Over the past year I have not been unhappy but my happiness has not been top of my priority lists and has sometimes been pushed aside and left for a whole so I've decided September I shall dedicate more time for my happiness! Even if it's just a facemask and a book on a Sunday night!

Wow! That was a lot harder than I thought it would be but I really have enjoyed almost structuring my month! What are you doing this month? Or what are you aiming for? Leave me a comment! 


Hope you all have a lovely September!

Love
