Hayley's Bite-Size Reviews
Великобритания
Добавлен 26 янв 2019
Hi,
I'm a 30 something, "glass half full" kind of girl (for the most part anyway...!).
Splitting my time between working in media in London and living on the South Coast.
Lover of the beach, a skinny Americano, loungewear, a good book, Jelly Babies and shopping for things I just don't need...!
As my channel name suggests (!), I will be bringing you regular, bite-sized reviews on books (chick lit, popular fiction, the odd thriller), products and travel. If this sounds like your kind of thing, please hit subscribe and join us.

"Bite-size" Book Review #30 | Meet Me In London by Georgia Toffolo 📚
The Works is brilliant for books. I got a Christmas book in the sale for £1 🎉
@@LisaParkesWildheart bargain! What can you get for £1 these days?! Happy New Year xx
Agrée 💯.
I finally finished all of her books. I appreciate what you have to say about her. Here is my own ranking of all her books: ruclips.net/video/Jp5y7x6l4Rs/видео.html
One twist, yes I saw coming, the other I screamed and scared my poor pup lol If you haven't already, I'd recommend reading No Exit by Taylor Adams. It gave me similar vibes in terms of the "locked room" setting.
@@acilecxknip oooooh I’ll have a look for that! Thanks for the recommendation
I don't like this book either.... I really hate situationsships ...i hate the main characters...
Perfect way of explaining healthwise and budget wise, thank you
it’s too boring for me 😭😭
We lov'em & feed'em & they repay us by digging in every bit of bare earth, ground or plant pot, they can find 😂 Pebbles round the larger plants helps & can look quite nice. I've never seen a ripe strawberry in the last 2 years - pinched whilst still green. Sunflower heads ripped off as soon as they set seed - at least they leave the dwarf ones alone as they are sterile. I've recently drawn the line at my baby carrots being dug up - think I need to create some metal mesh cages for protection, can't see butterfly netting being a sufficient deterrent for the antics of these determined little critters !
I just finished this book tonight and cried for the entirety of the last three chapters. Genuinely an amazing story, and though the ending was sad it was also really really good
I completely agree with you on this book! I DNF it after 80 pgs in. I don't the hype, and it just wasn't for me.
I totally agree!!
Awful pillows, way overpriced.
I will definitely look that one up... Been disappointed lately with very mediocre books...I hqve great hope for this one 😊
M at page 118 but hardly have few take aways like sleep is imp and we have deep sleep in early sleep hours which helps with memory too. Period. M sorry I can’t go ahead , it too repetitive and lot of scientific evidences which sometimes is overwhelming
I am glad I gave up on reading this book after completing almost half of it as nothing was happening in the story. Your video saved me from wasting more time.
I thought Elizabeth was younger ? Idk why
Thanks for the review. Getting ready to start (listen to) this one.
This book is driving me insane.
Who got married at the end? What was the last page about? I thought about Frances, but correct me if I'm wrong. :)
Yeah, Frances married Tony
@@anaisnethersole7768 Thank you. :)
I'm at page 50 and I struggling to continue reading it... help?
Life’s too short to read books you’re not enjoying- put it down and start something you know you’re going to love!
@@officialblondebookworm I think that's exactly what I needed to hear, thank you
I just finished reading this book and I went on RUclips to look up reviews to see if anyone else hated it as much as I did and I had to skip through like 7 videos to find yours. Thank God I’m not the only who couldn’t stand it. It made me queasy and unwell.
YOU. ARE, CRAZY 😂😂😂😂
Been buying the Aldi Lacura hot cloth cleanser for a few months now in 2023... £2.99! gone down in price then. It’s really improved my skin, a brilliant product I recommend it 💯
I read this book. I gotta say blunt and wet is up there to her discription. My favorite character is by far Lenora. She is a piece of work but by far the most interesting. I’d give it a 6. it tends to get dragged out at some points
When the world need her most, she disappeared.
hehe good review. now 2 years later the movie is out and although they altered a bunch of things they got one thing right. Tons of plot holes with no point.
Normal People is so much better! I'm glad I read that one first.
I am loving this book ❤
Thank you I was doubting my intelligence reading this book , and spent a lot of time looking up words I had never heard of on my kobo 😂
Read it (Ghosts) and totally agree with your review💖have a nice time!😊
How does the panda hybrid compare?
it gave me really bad neck pain do you get used to it?
Have you tried removing / adding more of the foam tubes? You might need to higher or lower.
There shit waste of money Simba bunch of chancers
Hi ! How the mattress is after 3 years?😊
I picked this book up at an airport bookstore before a Holiday in the Caribbean. I ended up finishing it three days later. Great book. Highly recommended.
What an amazing place to enjoy this book! 🏝️ I hope you had a great time x
I know this is old vid but I might recommend Belinda jones Chrissy mamby Jenny colgan Sarah mason Freya norths McCabe sisters novels and her stand alone a are good Marian keys
The series was a rollercoaster with only downs and no ups.. hell, even the adult scenes felt like a downer.. and there's way too much of them btw.
Outstanding renovation, one of the very best I have ever seen on RUclips (and I have viewed more than is good for anyone...) Well done and thank you for sharing.
Ahhh thank you! That’s very kind
100% agree. picked these books up after the constant praise i saw for Normal People on tiktok. beyond thankful for how short it was or else it was a DNF in my eyes
Thank you! I also started cause of TikTok hype and cannot stand it
This is the SIXTH time I’ve been betrayed by TikTok book recommendations lmao. You’d think I’d learn by now
My question is for neck pain do I go for a medium or a firm? noone gives any info
If there isn’t info on the website to help with that question, I would contact them to get some advice.
I love Normal People. Definitely my comfort book.
Hayley your gorgeous ❤ x
I finished it but thought it was horrible... so dissapointing, mostly the ending
Are you supposed to put a cover on it?
Yes, like a regular pillow
Whilst not cosy-crime at all have you read (and if not you should) M.W Craven's Washington Poe books? Washington Poe and Tilly are an amazing crime fighting duo.
The story will lend itself well to the big screen.
Also, have subscribed.
This is the first review of yours I have watched and I must said I am impressed. I have read the first two in the series and have the third in hardback and audio. I loved them so much I recommended them to my mum, who is now a big fan. Anyway great review, you basically said everything I thought. Will definitely try Casual Vacancy, thanks.
Thank you for the comment and subscribing ☺️
Two years after reading this it's still one of the biggest let downs I've read. But at least, this is now the book that I use as a filter on who to follow and whose book recommendations I can trust. If you liked the setup of normal people but found it infuriating that it didn't go anywhere and there was no real character development, I can very highly recommend "holding her breath". It has a similar vibe but overall much more interesting story points and actual character growth.
I'm currently reading this book. The only thing really bugging me is the weird grammar and punctuation.
