Dublin: My Birthday

Hey guys,

I just love a weekend away so I thought I'd share with you pictures from our trip to Dublin for my birthday. We did quite a bit of touristy things to I'm sure for those of you who are thinking of staying in Dublin, it will give yous an idea of what's on offer!

We stayed a bit outside the city centre in a rented apartment in Ranelagh. It was cheaper and well we are planning to move in together so we treated it as a mini trial.. ;)

First night (Friday) we went out was my birthday night so we went to my favourite bar in Dublin called Flannery's. Quite chilled with good music and large enough to fit a small country. 

We ate in a local restaurant called Cinnamon for breakfast the next day, it was beautiful. Irish food is something to be reckoned with! We didn't do very much on the Saturday, we were very, very hungover. But we made up for it the next day...

We walked into the City Centre through St Stephen's Green, dandered around Trinty College and got grossed out at the Wax Museum. We went to Bobos for a late lunch, the burgers are unbelievable (try them) and then went finished up at the Guiness Factory! Ofcourse. Who visits Dublin and doesn't go to the Guiness Factory?!

The next day it was time to leave, (super sad face) so to lessen the blow, we went to Dublin Zoo. It was amazing Such a good zoo, highly recommend!

Anyway, hope you all enjoy the pictures! (Obviously, I didn't put all them in... I go a little bit snap happy in new places!)

Jane Casey: Maeve Kerrigan Series

Hey guys, I hope you're all well. I've just finished my Journalism course, (exam wise anyway) I'm just waiting on results. Ahhhhh.. As a wee treat to myself and much to Scott's dismay I bought myself the rest of Jane Casey's Maeve Kerrigan books, including the newest one. Thought I might as well as I loved The Kill which is the 5th book in the series, if memory serves me right and I got so invested in the characters I just had to know more about them. Beginning with The Burning which is roughly about a nasty serial killer targeting young women. His trademark is the fact he then burns his victims making identifying them and him more difficult. The 'first' one we come across as a live crime scene is one that they are not sure if this victim was murdered by the Burning Man. This leads Maeve down a different route trying to discover if this victim is one of the serial killers victims OR if its an entirely different case entirely. In this book we see the bir...

Katerina Diamond: The Teacher

Hey everyone, I hope you all are well. Yeah I suck at regular posts but I'm getting there. Recently it's hard to find the time to read, awk well. I'll get there! Very happy with this book haul. Thank you Amazon! I've even another batch ordered and hopefully will be delivered this week! Can't wait. It really is the simple things in life. I usually pick books either on reviews or from the suggestion section on Amazon. And this is what I've based my last couple of book buys on.  Can honestly say this book was a lot darker than I was expecting. I thought from the description that it was about a suicide and the events that lead up to it. However, that's really not what the book it about. It's told from about three perspectives, Abbey, Parker and DS Adrian Miles.  Abbeys' story is told through flashbacks to her past and her work life, Parker is a new intern at the museum where Abbey works and DS Miles is one of the detectives on the case of the...

Catherine King: Her mother's secret

Hey guys, another post so soon? I know I'm spoiling you ;) Finally got my mojo back and it's nice to be writing again. This book was given to me by my mommabear. It's more her type of book, I'm funny when I see certain covers, no idea why just am. I think it's probably because I know they're my mums type of book if that makes any sense? This book is actually really good. It's got love, scandal, social hierarchy and for a while we're concerned the past is doomed to repeat itself. The story begins with a scene from the past, Ruth Hargreaves is a beautiful, young woman ready for her first party with the upper class. The master of the house takes a fancy to her and forces himself upon her. This however, is not the worst betrayal of Ruth's trust. Her father, Seth makes a deal with Lord Laughton in which he forced Ruth to be his mistress in exchange for a higher position within the Laughton household. There is more to it here, but I'll let you fi...
