‘The best thing for being sad, is to learn something...that’s the only thing that never fails.’ It’s mental health awareness week and I have zero words of wisdom to offer - so I thought I’d borrow some, from Merlin of all people. I think he was onto something. With Merlin (yes, the wizard) in mind I thought I’d share a list of favourite books that help me when I struggle with my mental health

Notes on a nervous planet by @mattzhaig
The reading cure (where the Merlin quote came from) by @laurasophiafreeman
The gifts of imperfection by @brenebrown
She must be mad by @charlycox1

You return to that earlier time armed with the present, and no matter how dark that world was, you do not leave it unlit. You take your adult self with you. It is not to be a reliving, but a rewitnessing. ——— Warlight
Books have gotten me through a lot of different periods of my life - happy, sad, traumatic. I don’t think I would be the person I am today without them, especially in the dark times. They have a way of transporting you through a portal into a whole other state of being and can completely change your mood for a brief period of time.
Just some thoughts for today. What is your favourite memory with a book? What book helped you through darker times?

schönen abend ihr lieben ☀️
war es bei euch heute auch so warm? Eigentlich liebe ich den Sommer, aber über 40 Grad ist mir dann vielleicht doch zu viel.
•
dafür konnte ich aber heute in der Sonne endlich „New Beginnings“ lesen und das Buch hat mir echt so gut gefallen. Habt ihr es schon gelesen oder habt es vor?
Ich fand, es war einfach total die schöne Geschichte, bei der man beim Lesen einfach glücklich und zufrieden ist. Also perfekt für so einen Tag.
Eine genaue Rezension findet ihr wie immer auf meinem Blog.

Ich wünsche euch allen noch einen schönen entspannten Abend. Zum Glück hab ich morgen auch noch frei. Ich schick ein bisschen Kälte an alle die morgen arbeiten müssen. ♥️

A tiny book haul...
Yesterday I went and bought Colson Whitehead’s new book: The Nickel Boys. This has been one of my most anticipated reads all year! I can’t wait to dive into this important book. My book lover senses have a feeling that this is going to be amazing!
The Nickel Boys is set in the Jim Crow era South and follows the lives of two African American boys sentenced to a reform school - Nickel Academy. Whitehead’s novel tackles another period of American racism and systemic discrimination. He explores how reform institutions and the trauma they inflicted, had lasting impact on their victims.

Happy weekend everyone! Are you excited for the next @bloomsburypublishing illustrated #harrypotter book? I sure am!! I’m so worried about how big it is going to be though
#fantasyfiction has always been one of my favourite genres and I think Harry Potter is to blame for that! I also loved Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit as a kid. Since reading these books I’ve adored fantasy ever since.
What is your favourite genre?
