    As an expat living in NZ, I love that you show different cities around the UK. It’s great to see what they look like now. Thanks for this.

    As always, a fab vlog! Thank you for taking us to Leeds!! I visited a few years back for a gig and I loved it! The corner exchange is SO pretty as well! 🥰
    I hope you enjoy Rosewater, it's on my TBR to read this summer! Also, Pet sounds really good too!

    I'm so grateful @Savidgereads suggested your channel! You are a breath of fresh air. You mentioned the rail system needs some work and I'd love to hear more on this topic someday. I'm from the US and always assumed the trains over there were amazing. I hope you have a great day and thanks for all the book recommendations , tours of the town and laughs. Always a day brightener. :) Also, I'm making some homemade granola in my outdoor sun oven now thanks to your inspiration.

      Simon is the sweetest! Thanks so much for your kind words, I truly love making videos and having this little community and it’s always lovely to have such sweet people give me feedback like this 😊🫶. I feel like our trains used to be okay, but since 14 years of Tory privatisation they’ve become ridiculous expensive and the service is shocking. I’d love for them to be publicly owned but I’m not sure we will get that anytime soon 😢. You’ve inspired me to make my own granola now! I’ve had a recipe saved for ages and still haven’t gotten around to making it haha 💕

    Glad you’re feeling better and out of the slump. Mary Roach slaps. She’s great. Can’t believe Holdfast was closed, I hope you’ve called your lawyers 😂 Zomg. That shop with all the bookmarks! Rosewater is ace. I’m very keen to read Pet this summer. Fav vid as always.

      Thanks Simon! I feel like it takes me so long to get over a cold/flu 😤 - I was shocked the book boat was closed but tbh we just had a laugh about it and I’ll definitely check it out next time 💕

    Glad I found your channe, I love finding other UK booktubers! Also I LOVED The Heart Principle, but its a little more intense than her other books, so bear in mind!

      So glad you’re here! I’ve never read any of hers before so I’m excited to see if I enjoy it, i don’t really read much romance other than Emily Henry tbh x

    You'll love Stiff, Mary Roach is hilarious. She has a handful of other books if you enjoy it. Haha, that's right, don't let Goodreads be the boss of you! I just read Pet and LOVED it!

      Mary Roach has such a unique way of writing dark subjects, or weird ones. I lived for it (which is weird to say because it about death lol) I’ve definitely been keeping my eye out for her others on vinted, but I’m also gonna check the library for more of hers. I think I might read pet next. Currently I’ve been reading a lot of Irish lit fiction and I’m loving it, but I need a little change 😊

    Leeds was cute! Loved the colourful bookshop, brill choices of books as well, hope you enjoy them! (Rosewater in hardback is fully it btw).

      Such a gorgeous little city, it had a great vibe and the people were all so friendly and kind. Reminded me of a mini Manchester. Glad I’m not alone with the hormonal acne 😭 literally a constant battle
