01. My favourite tweet this month. No, scratch that. This year.
02. Quite liked this one as well… *feeling ancient*
03. Book to TV adaptations that are in the works (I think Swing Time will be tops).
04. Love the Little Library Cafe blog. Love. Now there’s a book…
05. Rare roll cloud spotted in Queensland last week – I am desperate to see one of these…
06. Couple of weeks ago I mentioned the best toasted cheese sandwich – more deets on cheese.
07. I love Macklemore’s gift to his grandma on her 100th birthday.
08. Mean Girls and Clueless – the musicals.
09. Lastly, HOW GOOD is The Handmaid’s Tale?! The cinematography is superb.

I really enjoyed this post! I want to do more personable posts like yours on my blog.
I’m new to blogging and book reviewing, and I was wondering if you had any tips for newbie bloggers and book reviewers.
If you have the time, please check out my blog @breenysbooks. I’d love any feedback. Have a wonderful day.
Thanks for stopping by! There’s obviously tonnes of memes to get involved in – I don’t do many, or any regularly, just what grabs my fancy! I think if you’re starting out with reviews, stick to genres that you like and don’t feel you ‘have’ to review a book simply because you’ve been given an ARC. Good luck with your blog, it looks lovely.
Thank you very much for the tips! I greatly appreciate it.
No. 2 very nearly made me cry.
😂
OMG that first tweet! That is so hilarious!!
I saw that Soft Cell tweet. I am officially elderly.
Lmao at the first tweet xD And I would’ve never thought about the second one… O_o
I can’t help but to love Macklemore, even if I don’t love all his songs. I want to hang out with him (and maybe reenact the Downtown video).
The Handmaid’s Tale! So powerful, and I agree, the cinematography is superb.
And I love the eighties soundtrack as well.
That first one!!!!
The Handmaid’s Tale cinematography is so good. The settings are so lush and I like whatever overlay they used on the colors. (It’s sort of over saturated and muted at the same time.)
Book to TV: You has been on my TBR list since it came out, but I haven’t seen it on sale and my local overdrive libraries don’t have it! (I’ve put the requests in a few times.)
I love Macklemore. His songs are really hit and miss (this one is a hit), but he does seem like a really genuine person. *^-^*
You’re exactly right about the colours in Handmaid’s – the red, green and white seems so intense and somehow everything else is pared back.
I LOVE cheesy things…and The Handmaid’s Tale! Truly awesome cinematography! I am so eager for another season, and I hate all the waiting for new seasons of favorites…LOL.
Love the Princess D shrine.
Here is MY BOOKISH/NOT SO BOOKISH POST
Can’t really ever go wrong with cheese…
Was going to say something astute and clever about handmaids tale- but it’s been said so eloquently here already. So… hear hear! It’s all fabu!
The TWEET! Hilarious! “She somehow manages to be more annoying dead than alive” (parapharse from the movie The Queen staring Helen Mirren).
I’ve not watched The Handmaid’s Tale yet but really must get my act together.
I love the first meme and the second one scares the bejesus out of me. How can I be that old?!
