Rupi Kaur | 2014 | Fiction & Poetry

Emotional nutrition
Rupi Kaur puts so simply and articulates so clearly the feelings that so many have felt but not expressed. Her poems are so strikingly relatable and honest. Of course, it raises the question about what constitutes modern poetry given the odd structure, almost haiku-like. However, this is subjective.

This poem reads as a self-help or mindfulness book to a certain extent, but it is communicated through beautiful images and flowing language. It covers some hard-hitting topics and describes what it is like to be a woman in this day and age. If you're unsure on whether you'll enjoy it, go check out her Instagram page for snippets of her books.

"I have been seeing Caraval featured on so many blogs and instagram accounts, I couldn't just not read it. I've read, “A MUST READ”, so many times; I knew I had to get my hands on it...

And I loved it! LOVE, LOVES, LOVED IT!

It was everything a book should be: fun, diverse characters; steady plot; twist and turns (let me tell you, there were so many twists- I got dizzy); romance; suspense; adventure! I read this book in one sitting; only stopping to use the bathroom once and another time to grab a quick snack (a handful of pink Starbursts). It was that good."

Good community of beginner and professional artists

Good app for motivation and inspiration
As an artist I sometimes need a push to get motivated. I found this app recently. It gives you a word prompt for the day. Once you have created your image, you can upload it to the days feed. You can view other people's drawings and give them a like or a comment.
It's also nice that you are given rewards. You get to pick a box which reveals a picture from a famous artist, which is added to your reward gallery. A nice useful, motivational app.

My Not So Perfect Life: A Novel
Sophie Kinsella | 2017 | Fiction & Poetry

This is a lovely light read. Katie has moved from Somerset and reinvented herself in London. Now her Instagram account shows a perfect existence in modern London but the reality is far less fun. Her indomitable boss Demeter has made her work life miserable and she shares a cheap flat with strange flatmates and a hellish commute to work. Life takes a turn and Katie seizes fresh opportunities to discover what she really wants, and needs, in her life. Kinsella is skilful at telling stories of our strange contemporary lives with humour, several situations make you laugh out loud. Not a heavy read but one that has great characters and a decent storyline.
