Its that time again where I share my favourite tv shows with you and i have some pretty good ones in my list this time. 

C A L L  T H E  M I D W I F E

A classic show for me which I have been watching for years. I ended up missing the seventh series when it was aired on tv so I am so excited that that series is now on Netflix! I am currently re-watching the sixth series on the website in preparation since it has been a while, I don't want to forget anything. 

I N S I D E  NO 9

This is a recent discovery for me and so far I absolutely love it! I love the concept that every episode is non related but contains the same actors most of the time. It stars Steve Pemberton who I have loved ever since first seeing him in Benidorm. I am now on series 2 and I find them so interesting. My favourite episode so far was S2E2 with Sheridan Smith, the episode gripped me and actually made me cry. My second episode I totally recommend is S1E3 which kept me guessing the whole episode who and what was real.

This is such a well written, well executed and well produced show, it should be on every Friday night till the end of time. I started watching this at the beginning of the year with Callum and we become obsessed really quickly. We watched all the series' in one go and then got our hearts broken when we were told the new series was being recorded. We are still waiting for the new series to air ….

It is no secret that I love a good documentary especially one recorded in a prison. This documentary follows young girls in a American correctional facilities and shows you their struggles inside and outside the facility. The girls started to really annoy Callum but I watched the series till the end to see how the girls finished the series.

What a brilliant show! There are many questions surrounding this tv shows like why the hell do they have English accents but an American styled school? But man am I excited for the next series. Most people have watched this show already but if you haven't, go download Netflix right now!!

I have loved Stacey way before her stint on Strictly, all the way back in her Blood, Sweat and T-shirts days, so I always watch any new show she brings out. In this doc she spends a weekend at the house of different types or families, from a YouTube family to a house which is child led. I relate to Stacey so much for many different reasons so I love the questions she asks in her interviews.

This show is fantastic and I am not creative at all.  watched it while it airs last month and I was pretty sucked in. The show follows interior designers compete to be crowned the master designer and win the prize of designing a hotel in London. My favourite episode so far has been the lodges by the seaside, I really want to go for a weekend break at a lodge in the countryside.

I have always loved a period drama and Sanditon has not disappointed me. Even if I wasn't a fan of period dramas, I would watch it just for Theo James. Imagine him in a gentleman's outfit and a cane... thank me later. I  really enjoyed the show which follows a influential family who lives by the sea and tries to make it seaside resort.

A M E R I C A N  H O R R O R  S T O R I E S

Need I explain this? I have loved this show from the first series and although my interest has dipped along the series, I still watch the new episodes as soon as they are on tv. We are about half way in the new series and so far I seems good. I do miss Evan Peters because he is the king of AHS for me.

This show will not get old to me. I had to give it an honourable mention because although it isn't a new find to me, I watched this show every morning while I am getting ready so you can imagine how many times I have started again. I think I am on my 8th straight run of the show and although Callum hates it every time he hears the theme tune, I can't get enough. 

What have you been watching? 

What I've Been Reading Lately

I have mentioned before that I am a total bookworm and since getting my iPad I have read so many books on it I think it is about time I gave you a low down of my favourites.

adult, Bella Andre, book, Dimily, drama, Estelle maskame, lifestyle, List, magic, mystery, Natasha preston., Reading, romance, sara cannon, shadow demon, Silence, The Sullivans, young adult,


Shadow Demon Series by Sara Cannon
This is my current series that I am reading and every book is free on iTunes which is a bonus. It consists of 8 books and is about the existence of shadow demons in a small town. It is very much a young adults novel and not surprisingly it includes a little romance with a 'bad boy' as he is refereed to by the other characters. The main character has had a hard life but finally feels like she has a place when she moves to a new town and realised she was born a witch. As she learns more about what she is and what the town have planned for her, her willingness to become what the town want her to be becomes too much. I am currently on the 3rd book and I am loving the series, each book isn't very long so you get into the plot very quickly and aren't waiting around for something to happen.
This book is good for people who like romance, magic and mystery. 

The Dimily Series by Estelle Maskame 
This is my favourite series I have read in a very long time. It consists of 3 books, Did I mention I love you, Did I mention I need you and Did I mention I miss you which is released at the end of July. This book is about true love which isn't considered the norm as the characters involved are step siblings who hated each other at first. Eden and Tyler are my OTP and you see their relationship grow through the books overcoming obstacles like parents and other partners. I have been waiting what feels like a year for the last book in the series to come out and I don't know if I'm ready for it to be the end.
This book is good for young people who like romance and drama.

The Sullivans Series by Bella Andre 
This series was one of the first book series I read on my Ipad and I become totally obsessed with it, reading the books in 2 days and then buying the next one start after. There are 17 books in total in the series and I had read 7 before I had to stop because it was taking over my life. Each book follows a member of the Sullivan family find love with the most unexpected people, I am not ashamed to say I feel in love with the male in each book. Each person has their own problems and life challenges which mean they've never been serious with anyone before which makes the events in the books so much more intense.
This book is good for people who like romance, drama and adult themes. (very naughty!)

The Silence Series by Natasha Preston
This is a more serious series which really pulled on my heart strings. This series of 2 books follows a girl called Oakley who hasn't talked since she was a 5 and is trying to finding her way in life and romance but at the same time holding back a secret that would rip her family apart. It made me so emotional and had me rooting for Oakley the whole way through. Her romance with Cole is the purest, cutest thing I have ever seen and his willingness to do anything to protect her made me fall for him.
This book is good for people who like romance, drama and adult themes.

So what have we learned today? I fall in love with every male character I read in books apparently... I have to give credit to the authors for making the characters so real! I have focused on the series' that I have read in this post but I have plenty more stand alone books on my iPad that I can talk about if you are interested. Also if you have any good recommendation on young adult romance books, leave them in the comments below!
