Madam Reads: Eversea & Forever Jack by Natasha Boyd.

Oh… have you ever read a story that stays with you a long time after you’re done. You carry it with you, in your heart and each time you remember a scene from the story you just sigh and smile and people are intrigued to know what has you smiling so blissfully. Eversea is that…

Madam Reads: The Breathing Series by Rebecca Donovan

Never has a book driven me to the edge of insanity that I all but lost my mind whilst reading it. Rebecca Donovan is an author not averse to taking her readers apart, emotionally and I love her for it. The Breathing series, a trilogy of YA novels that tells the story of Emma/Emily Thomas.…

Scandal S-3 Ep 8. Vermont Is For Lovers Too. Mmm Hm.

Papa Pope and Mama Pope do not share a cosy relationship, that much is obvious but it further solidifies the theory that Mama Pope is not going to win “mommy of the year” award anytime soon.
