C. L. Taylor Is One Of My New Favourite Authors

C. L. Taylor Is One Of My New Favourite Authors

Within the space of a month, I have managed to read all four of C. L. Taylor’s gripping psychological thrillers. I loved every single one of them. I first came across C. L. Taylor’s books in Asda.

Some authors’ books become predictable when the plot is pretty…

Our Trip to North Wales

Our Trip to North Wales

Last Friday we went to North Wales for a much needed weekend break. It was just what the doctor ordered, since the summer holidays have been pretty uneventful. I expected to go on numerous picnics in the park but it has rained almost daily since the kids broke up for the holidays. We were worried that the rain would ruin our North Wales break, but alhamdulillah (all praise to God) we found some sunshine! So we left Manchester on Friday…

Our Little Secret by Claudia Carroll | Book Review

Our Little Secret by Claudia Carroll | Book Review

“What If The Perfect Life Wasn’t Yours Anymore?” I have read almost all of Claudia Carroll’s books and I think she is a great author. I saw ‘Our Little Secret’ on the library shelves during my latest trip to the library, and was pleasantly surprised that this book was a suspense rather than her usual romance novels. So what is ‘Our Little Secret’ about? “Sarah Dee has the perfect life. A high-flying job in a law firm, a beautiful daughter…

Activated Charcoal To Whiten Teeth – Does It Work?

Activated Charcoal To Whiten Teeth – Does It Work?

I purchased some Activated Charcoal Capsules a few months ago to try out the latest trend of activated charcoal face masks, and I shared my experience here. To say it was painful was an understatement! Needless to say, I only ever tried the activated charcoal and PVA glue face mask once. That left me with a bottle of activated charcoal capsules, which I could have used for digestion purposes but forget that they exist whenever I have digestion/bloating. Another popular…
