Books


So I've been really frustrated as I have been building up a (small) collection of books to read and now that I am back at school I have no time to read. My work load for sixthform has been overwhelming already but it's already one of the most satisfying things I've done. 
What books would you recommend? 

Trip of a life time


This summer I took the most incredible trip to Italy.
I went with my closest friend who I have known since year 5, she means the world to me and I was ecstatic when I found out we were going on holiday together. It was a two week trip but we spent a few weeks together either side of it by the time we had to split it felt like I had lost a limb. We made trips in to Florence but mainly spent our time by the pool reading and listening to music. My favorite books that I read were 
The Great Gatsby by F.Scott Fitzgerald
Looking for Alaska by John Green 
Will Grayson Will Grayson by John Green 
and 
Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov
I want to know what has been your favorite trip ever? and what type of books you like to read? 
  

My Name


So I've been thinking long and hard about what to write as my first post on my new blog and I thought the best place to start would be my name. My name is Isabella. I don't know what it means but it means a lot to me as my dad chose my name, from what I know he named me after Isabella Rossellini who is an Italian actress. I love that my dad chose it as it makes me feel closer to him. what about you, what does your name mean to you?
