Lena Dunham recommended Kicking Sick: Your Go-To Guide for Thriving with Chronic Health Conditions in Books (curated)

"Kurtz inspired me to take my chronic illness into my own hands with her beautiful book, which is a public service for every woman or person who has felt caged by their pain. She gives action items and cute lil’ stories and pretty pictures of delicious smoothies. It’s lifestyle porn for self-described weaklings. I love it."

If you were only 16, your mother was murdered, and your father in jail for the crime, you probably wouldn't have a clue how to handle it, but that's exactly what Tate McCoy has to do. Read my review of this beautiful YA debut novel by Melanie Bishop, here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2014/05/07/finding-buoyancy/

Better than the first

This album is beautiful. The haunting, eerie vocals paired with the almost mystic indie rock creates a truly original sound from Wolf Alice. The difference between tracks like St Purple and Green and Yuk Foo is astounding how they can be collected together in the same album and still be such an amazing sound.
