Vital for current affairs
Slightly biased as I sort of work with Twitter now, hence I use it minute-to-minute. The content is absolutely essential in modern-day media, from finding out initial pieces of information about an event and reading news, to even looking at statements from politicians - we can only guess who.

When I worked in a newsroom, it was my next port of call to speak to eyewitnesses, or find out something from a far off country, so I can't stress enough how important it is for work. We were able to speak to Ukrainian activists on the ground when the conflict began in 2014 thanks to Twitter.

App-wise, it works relatively fine - the new updates can be problematic as I can't copy the writing and some of the alerts do not get pushed through. I now use Twitter Lite as it takes up less memory space on my phone - it's pretty much the same, but it uses Chrome instead.
  
Daisy Jones & the Six
Daisy Jones & the Six
Taylor Jenkins Reid | 2019 | Fiction & Poetry
A true (fictional) history of a rock band!
I loved everything about this book. I’ve wanted to be in a Rock band since I was a small child. There were only two small problems with this: 1. Only I think I can sing; and 2. My mum would only let me learn to play the clarinet, not the guitar. Life is so unfair... Instead I live vicariously through my favourite bands and books like this!

Told through interviews with the various band members, we hear the story of the rise to fame of The Six, and their chance meeting with Daisy Jones. We hear the fascinating story of their relationships, particularly that between Billy the lead singer, and Daisy the OTHER lead singer.

It’s all very Fleetwood Mac - the love affairs, the break ups - I loved it! And yes, I did listen to Rumours once or twice whilst I was reading. How could I not?

So I chose Lady Chatterley's Lover by Mr D.H Lawrence. Lady Chatterley's lover was a book created by Lawrence created in 1928. He had the book published privately in Italy and France but boy did he kick up a fuss. The book was subsequently banned in the UK, Australia, Canada, the US and India. There were outcries of the lewd nature of the book, the frank talk about sex and intimacy and extra-marital affairs. In 1960, a trial was held in the UK and the book was released from its ban.

While reading this, I tried to understand why this book was considered so obscene. I mean we have 50 shades of grey which didn't have any fingers pointed at it and that book discusses more unique sex forms. This book discussed pure 'vanilla' sex between a man and a woman. So what was the issue?
