Astonishingly Relatable
I never go into a celebrity memoir expecting much, but I was shocked by not only how much I really enjoyed this book but also by how relateable it was to me. There were parts that could have literally been taken from my life. As such, I devoured this book and have even been considering rereading it which is something I do not normally do.

Such a good book! Mental illness can be a very touchy subject and I feel like Nicola handled it with grace and opened the reader's eyes to being on the inside. The pacing is perfect, not feeling rushed like some romances can. All of the characters are perfectly crafted, their flaws making them even more relatable and harder to let go of at the end. Fantastically written!

Oh man #BlackMirror - '#StrikingVipers' besides some hand holding at the start is pretty much flawless. Relevant, shocking, bleak, thought provoking, intelligent and well directed with a beautiful score and great performances. Possibly my favourite episode bar 'The Entire History Of You' which was pure perfection (mainly because I found it the most relatable and scarily hit a bit to close to home for me personally).

Reliant on reader's pop culture knowledge (0 more)
Wow! This novel deserves all the hype it gets. It's manages to be incredibly magical in such a sci-fi world, yet still remaining relatable. The characters are beautifully rounded and strong. The one downside is, if you have very little knowledge of 80's pop culture references, you may find yourself lost in this one.

"Love in the Time of Cholera is not a love story, but more a treatise on the subject of love in all its many forms. Márquez’s brilliant storytelling here is a joy, transforming the mundane realities of a long marriage into moments to be savored and relished. The intimate discoveries and daily bonds of marriage are at once thoroughly human, relatable, as well as spiritually transcendent.​"

"Observations about life from a Roman emperor from almost 2,000 years ago. Remarkably fresh, simple, and pertinent. Filled with rational emotion and practical aphorisms. When I read this the first time, I felt like I was receiving loving guidance from a dear friend. The writing is that simple and relatable. Seriously, Marcus was an emperor, and you never feel like he’s talking down to the reader!"

Funny- sarcastic humour is relatable. (0 more)
Sad moments-you will probably cry. (0 more)
Something unique. Not like all the other tv shows so entertaining yet its only about everyday problems. Its also deeper in that it shows how people cope differently with grief. It really does walk to line between sad and hilarious as you see the main character use sarcasm to deal with his wife’s death.
