2 Book Suggestions for the Summer

Book Reviews
Hi everyone,
Today’s post is about books!I ❤ reading light-hearted books, especially during summer. I will actually talk to you about two of the books I have read so far and recommend them. If you like novels that are funny and about love, I have something for you love!
Both

13 Weddings by Paige Toon

I read this in 3 days. It is about a girl called Bronte who woks for a magazine. She meets someone, falls in love, and so on so on. You see her adventures and giggle from time to time. I like that about books. If a book makes me laugh, I am content. I really liked the ending because it was not predictable. There is a second story line which I did not really get (father- daughter relationship), it did make me want to read more though in order to figure out what was going on.
I recommend this book if you are looking for something easy to read, on the beach during the summer.
You can get the book here.

The Queen of Wishful Thinking by Milly Johnson

I haven’t finished reading this but I thought I’d mention it cause first of all, I really like where the story is set. England and in an antique shop. This one is about two people who love antiques and meet. They are both married and not very happy in their  marriages. It is interesting to see the couple dynamics. Not as light- hearted as the other book, but nothing heavy (so far). Again, a book you can flip through during your holidays. You can get it here.

Other recommendations

If you haven’t read the Rosie Project or the Rosie Effect, you need to. Again stories about finding love but written from a guys perspective. I have one spoiler for you. He makes a questionnaire in order to find his perfect wife. These books are really fun to read and page turners. You can get the Rosie Project here and the Rosie Effect here

Garnier Micellar Water VS Micellar Gel

Hi everyone,
Today I am going to talk about two products from the same brand. I like them both, but one is my all time favourite and it actually made me stop purchasing the other. So, what’s the difference between the Gernier Micellar Water and Gel? Don’t worry. I am not going

Consistency

Well, the first obvious difference is the consistency. One is a water and one is a gel.
How does that affect me? I use more micellar water than I need to because it spills more easily. The gel is easier to control.

Application

I use cotton to apply the water. I actually use a couple of cotton pads to remove all my makeup.The gel has a pump, the water doesn’t. Gel: I use two pumps of the gel and everything, I say everything (yes, even mascara) comes off.

Skin Types

I have used both the sensitive skin  and the normal combination both were fine for me. I did not notice a difference.

Sizes

Water 700 ml, 400 ml and 125ml
Gel: 200 ml.
Unfortunately there is no travel friendly option.

Which one do I prefer and recommend?

The gel. It is better value for money and much more effective. You can get it here.

A day at Chatsworth: House of Style and the gardens

A while ago I went to Chatsworth and loved it. It is about 40 minutes from Sheffield and the place where Pride and Prejudice was filmed. I visited the house and the gardens and made a short video. You can watch it here.

 

Thanks for watching.
