I really love these vlogs and find them so comforting. Thank you for sharing them 🤗 i saw another booktuber struggling with underwhelming reads no so long ago, and she made a video analysing what she liked about her favourite reads of the last few years. And then choose some new books to read based on that. Maybe doing something like that could help you find a new favourite? 😊

This is an absolutely GREAT IDEA. Thank you!

There’s a website called What Do I Read Next….you put any book title in and it gives you a list of books that are similar or books that readers also enjoyed that are close to it. That should help!

School girl error Lauren, you should always crack each egg into a bowl first for this very reason 😂

I really enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing a small piece of your life with us. The music choice today does sound very familiar. It was lovely and spring-like .

And Then She Fell is a fantastic novel. It was absolutely robbed by not being on the short list, I think you should read it!

My first concert was Britney Spears' Onyx Tour when I was 11/12 and I don't think my mother has ever recovered from the sexy scenes Britney had on stage, haha.

Aww, Bluewater and the Chatham dockyards, that takes me back to the time when I was working for a language travel organisation in the Medway district. 🥲 Loved visiting the historic dockyards (I have a bit of a thing for Age of Sail historical dramas), but I hated being inside the submarine.

You have inspired me to start using my library again🎉 hoping to get a five star read this month from there. As I’m having a similar problem this year with my reading. Just started Factory Girls 💛

I want to go to the school in the Wayward Children series. Unlike most magical schools its a very safe school where the children are well looked after.

Sounded like the opening of the Antiques Roadshow? 🎼. Great vlog, you’re amazing. Mallory Towers for me.

When I was younger I always wanted to go to Cackle's Academy in The Worst Witch.

I to have not had great experiences with books. I am trying blacklist titles, such as the Call the Midwife books that the series is based on and I'm reading the James Herriot books about his time as a vet in England. 😊

I have got Pet on my bedside table. Been there for ages. I think I will read it once I have finished my Women’s Prize books. Three and a bit books to go.

For me it would have to be Avonlea school. How wonderful to be taught by Anne Shirley. I am listening on Audible to 'The Woman ' by Kristen Hannah' What an amazing book. Thoroughly recommend ❤❤

This was my pick for a school as well!

You can make lovely napkins using hand embroidery. You can learn how by finding: videos online, websites, and books from the library. There are also channels on KZfaq as well. I am really interested in a review of your Marian Keyes book. I have never read any of her books so I am intrigued. Looking forward to May’s Daphne du Maurier. I may read Tatiana de Rosney’s bio of her. Check with your library to see if they have any cookbooks for muffins. You might be also interested in quick breads as well. I love pumpkin loafs especially.

I would absolutely love to go to the Harper's Hall in the Dragonriders of Pern series by Anne McCaffrey!

I’ve almost finished the Soldier Sailor audiobook and it’s good - I am not a mother and don’t want to be a mother, and I actually found it very like Night Waking by Sarah Moss in that it confirmed that I am making the right decision!

I had three 5 star reads so far, Kindred by Octavia E Butler, how to say Babylon by Safyia Sinclair and Mama's Boy by Dustin Lance Black (a re-read) Another great book was Bright Young Women by Jessica Knoll (gave it 4.5). Also so far DNFd 7 books Also not getting on with the Women's prize this year and kind of gave up, although still very interested in and then she fell and brotherless night.

My first thought for the school I'd attended was Plumfield, Jo March's school in Little Women, but I'm currently reading the Truly Devious series, so now I'm thinking I'd like to go to Ellingham Academy (but without the deaths).

Lauren, Anna Walsh’s origin story is in Anybody Out There. You don’t have to have read it before My Favourite Mistake, but I think you would enjoy it even more if know the background ❤

Thank you! Maybe I'll try and get it in audio before I dive into My Favourite Mistake!

For the question, I think the Meadowbank school in cat among the pigeons, I think it will be a fun school when they reconstruct it. I love the music you played, I found a version which is a bit livelier; kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a8eCl814yOCdeXk.html According to my research, it hasn't been in any score of any movies or tv shows, which I think is a bit sad, don't you?
