Currently reading | Wilde like me

Book 3 of 2024 |  Wilde like me  by Louise Pentland Now I have read this before but I now have the sequel which means that I need to refresh my memory of what happens. This is a beautiful story which starts with a Mum, Robin and her daughter, Lyla and how single parenting life isn't always easy but she makes it work whilst being an aspiring make up artist. The book is written in a diary style staring from January to December and follows her through a year of her life. The story is so well written with you being able to feel the emotions of the characters and always wanting to know more. With it being diary style it feels a little like you are part of the story and is so relatable to every day life. Wilde like me really is a great pick up story and is an easy light hearted read with a few heart string moments, it one that you find hard to stop reading. I am excited to finish this one and get on to the next story. Victoria x Book 1 of 2024 Book 2 of 2024

Hastings Race for life 2024 5k

Sunday just gone me and Lilly took part in the annual race for life in our local park for the first time. If you know our story just then you know just over 2 years ago we lost Liam's dad to a very short battle and wanted to help prevent what our daily had gone through by raising some money. We signed up back in January so have been waiting a long time for this day, when we arrived there was lots set up including photo opportunities, the start and finish lines, sponsor stands and they also had placed extra toilets for the participants.          Our race started at 11am and we were asked to get into categories for either walkers, joggers and runners to help keep the course clear. Me and Lils joined the Wales part but did jog round part of the course too. The course is well marked out with volunteers to cheer you on too and each kilometre is marked off with a sign to know how far you've gone. It was slightly longer than though but me and Lils crossed the finish line in around 50
