Last nights movie ... You Were Never Really Here s

Last nights movie ... You Were Never Really Here starring Joaquin Phoenix. Daves choice again! I think the spinner app hates me! This movie has rave reviews and while I do love Joaquin, this one didn’t quite hit the mark for either of us. Very slow, minimal dialogue (and what dialogue there was seemed mumbled and unclear but maybe that’s my age! 🤣), brutal. First reaction was a 3/10 but now I’ve thought about it a bit more I’ll give it a 5. Only 2/10 from @davieramone though! Hoping for something a little more lighthearted next week!

I actually finished a book! Lockdown has messed with my brain, work has been stressful, and while our little family unit continues to self isolate (I’m the only one leaving the house as I’m an NHS worker) I feel like I am emerging from a fog and beginning to pick up my usual hobbies.
Anyway, Weather by Jenny Offill fitted the mood of the moment. Told in small almost disconnected instalments, it didn’t need a lot of brain power to concentrate on to keep the thread of the story. Odd but enjoyable. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ #bookstagram #booklover #justread

Submarine ... @davieramone choice. Quite a depressing little number. Most ‘coming of age’ movies or books I’ve experienced are from the girl’s perspective so it was quite interesting to see something from the other side. Engaging characters and good acting, but nothing spectacular. 6.5/10 from me, 6/10 from him. #movienight #movienightathome

It’s March and I have big reading plans! It is #theirishreadathon this month, so I have gathered some of the books on my shelf by Irish authors ... I won’t get through all of them as I’ve also decided to join in with #MantelinMarch which is being run by @savidgereads ... annnnnd the #womensprizeforfiction long list will be announced this week and I have a mad idea to attempt to read them all, but that totally depends on what is on the list, how many I already own and whether I fancy them so we shall wait and see on that ... #bookstagram #bookworm #marchtbr #readingplans

Planning a western USA road trip this summer ... had to rack my brains for these titles. I knew @rebeccaschinsky had spoken about them on the @bookriot podcast, and I remember thinking both sounded amazing, but I’m a Brit and not the most outdoorsy person alive. Really looking forward to reading these now though, and to visiting some US national parks!
