Sleep is a fickle friend of mine unfortunately.

Personal travel agent sounds ideal

Please can I request somewhere sunny (doesn't need to be super hot, just a nice 25-30 with a gentle breeze), ideally near the sea or a river or lake so I can go on little boat trips, with a chilled out vibe, good food and an explorable town or city with a little bit of history.

Home bodies unite!

No new lotion or detergent or anything like that.

Have had a bit of hay fever the past week or two so yesterday started on anti-histamines. So maybe polleny rash coming on later than the other hay fever symptoms. Or maybe allergy to the bloody anti-allergy medication

Can I come with? I promise to be as unobtrusive as possible, I just need a break.

I really love my home, but it's always open to friends, too. So come along, make yourself comfortable on my terrace, have a cocktail.

Hay fever is the worst, I'm so sorry you suffer from it. It could be a delayed reaction, although the anti-histamines should have taken care of that. How odd. Not sure you can actually have skin reactions from anti-histamines, I'd have to investigate - usually, the adverse reactions/allergic reactions are more systemic.

"Sleep is a fickle friend" - I relate to this so much. I was up at 10 to 6am this morning, not even sure why.

Yes, we really should stop calling him useless just in case… I mean when I meet him and we end up in love I’ll pretend like I was not part of this trolling

he will always be my Third favourite Everton CB…
and he should know if I picked the England team he would definitely get in before slabhead, because it doesn’t matter how many goals he concedes I still like him better

There's a new bae OFC fic up on AO3! And a new Jordan one though, off to read!

I admire anyone who can do the first narrator thing. I couldn't, really not.
Most of the things I've written have been first person, and most of them are rubbish for that exact reason. I'm not opposed to it at all as a reader, but for me personally, I think I was using it to make things 'easier' in that I only have to write about feelings from one side.

I was very tempted to write AON in first person as Aimee, and I'm so glad I was brave enough to move to third person. Imagine how badly John would have come across if you never known what he was thinking!? Or what was going on with Megan at home!?

The new Jordan one is very good, and I almost didn't even read because I was convinced that only the Sun City/ENT author can write them well.

The OFC one, I'm interested to see where it goes. There's always room for some holiday fluff in my heart.

I love AON for that reason in particular (amongst many more reasons!), you get to see sides to the story you might have missed otherwise.

I feel like we all develop distinctive writing styles, and if it works for us, we should use it.

Holiday fluff is always adorable, I'm curious to see what happens.

I love AON because it is in third person, probably for the exact reasons you said. He would have seemed like such a prick if it was from Aimee’s POV.
Because WUIV was from Abbie’s POV (lol that autocorrect to Annie) then you weren’t sure if he was a nice person at times

I do like crime novels, less the gory stuff than the psychological / more humourous kind of writing. At the moment I'm back to catching up on the Bosch novels, which are quite nice. Other than that, historical novels and biographies of interesting people. (Medical books don't count).

What about you?

Ooooh, thread title already? We've made it

I'm guilty of comfort reading old favourites - Harry Potter, Hunger Games and anything by Paige Toon on a loop.

I like YA fiction as I think I am still a teenager.

I like crime too but it wouldn't be my go to. If a blurb catches my eye then I'll read it. Read a lot of chicklit in my 20s but I think I've grown out of it now.

My reading list is SO long but now all I do is read fics.

Its just occurred to me that I start my new job tomorrow

That's exciting! And I hope you have an amazing start!

Well written YA fiction can be so amazing, better than any old-school text that is deemed "must read" by some (usually the NYT) literary list. You enjoy what you enjoy, right? Same goes for fanfiction, some are better written than the books in the book shops these days.

I'd love to read more, but my brain refuses to cooperate these days, unfortunately. So it's fiction and fanfiction.

I am feeling grossly unprepared, like I should have spent a bit more time this week thinking about it rather than boys. Can't decide what to wear because I hate all of my work clothes. My last place was smart casual whereas I think this will be much smarter there is nothing worse than smart clothes in hot weather.

Need bae to look after me like he looks after his newbies
