I have never seen all 20 drivers so incredibly happy at one time, and all it took was 10 lego cars
Back to reality today after two weeks of annual leave, but the sun is shining I’m surrounded by boxes of advances and have special edition proofs on my desk 👀 so all is actually quite right with the world ☺️
Nice present from Waterstones to have this waiting for me when I got back to London 😍☺️😍 Now to spend the next week quickly finishing my current read so I can dive in 😅



Sorry new favorite official Percy look just dropped
Turns out straight white men do understand the importance of representation when it’s their identity they don’t see on the shelf 🤷♀️

Love spring when you discover a place like this just around the corner 💙

“go to hell” is basic. “i hope your favourite gothic fiction about mental illness, racism, classism and dysfunctional romance is adapted into eroticized shit from butt” is terrifying. it’s possible. it's happening to me.
First look at Emerald Fennell’s ‘WUTHERING HEIGHTS’ starring Margot Robbie & Jacob Elordi. In theaters February 14, 2026.
While it means I’m away from home for the weekend I feel like picking up my wedding dress is an appropriate use of my Valentine’s Day 🥰
