Clara Rubensson is an up-and-coming 17-year-old singer-songwriter from Sweden. Not too long ago, she released a charming debut single, entitled, “Next to You”.

“Can’t you see I got something on my mind and I got this feeling I cannot get it right. I see smiling faces telling me I’m wrong. That I don’t fit in and we’ll never find a home.” – lyrics

Later, she admits that it doesn’t matter what people say or do because she feels okay when she’s next to her partner.

‘Next to You’ contains a relatable storyline, ear-welcoming vocals, and top-notch instrumentation scented with a commercial pop fragrance.

Clara Rubensson has an edgy and cool attitude and her unique voice is wrapped in a modern partly organic soundscape.

Her ”Next to You” single is one of the finalists in the nationwide Swedish music competition P4 Nästa. The final will take place on July 4, 2019. Also, the song is currently on priority airplay at the radio station P4.

Strong Debut
Allie Cobb has returned home to Rushing Creek, Indiana for her father's funeral. While his death wasn't a surprise, it has still hit her hard. She's not prepared for tragedy to strike her small town a second time when the body of Thornwell Winchester is found. He was one of Allie's father's literary clients, and also the father of Allie's best friend, Sloane. When Sloane becomes the police's chief suspect, Allie steps in to find out the truth. Can she do it?

This book is more serious in tone than many of the cozies I read, but given what brings Allie home, that is completely appropriate. I never found that overwhelming, and the book doesn't dwell on it. After all, this is a mystery, and it isn't long before we are off meeting Thornwell and the potential suspects. I was intrigued by the red herrings and enjoyed the twists as we headed toward the logical climax. The suspects are strong, but I was really impressed with the series regulars. They have pasts and baggage that brought them to the page fully formed. I'm interested to see how that dynamic plays out as the series progresses.

On the surface Olivia Wilde’s feature length directorial debut looks like any other coming of age film about teenagers graduating high school – and you’d be right.

Molly (Beanie Feldstein) and Amy (Kaitlyn Dever) realise that despite all their A’s and hard work each should have spent more time drinking and going to parties, get ready for one wild night where the goal is to cram as much drunken debauchery in as possible.

There are some funny moments including; awkward discussions about masturbation and why you should always make sure the volume is down when connecting your phone to the aux cable. But outside of that it feels too similar to one film in particular, and I just couldn’t break away from it. Superbad for me is one of the best teen flicks of recent years, a laugh out loud comedy that had genuine flickers of drama. It was a joy to watch and one that has always stuck with me as one of the funniest.

I just didn’t get that same feeling with Booksmart, while their were some funny and tender moments I couldn’t help but think all that was missing was a female version of Fogell.
