So a few weeks ago, I made a few impulse buys on Amazon and decided to order a book recommended to me, written by one of my favourite authors 'Jennifer Niven'. When it arrived I found I had no time to read it and simply placed it on my bedside table because the book cover looked pretty. However when I finally found the time to sit down and read some of it, I couldn't put it down. I honestly love Niven's style of writing, as well as the morals behind each story she writes. Her previous bestselling book 'All The Bright Places', was one of the most beautifully written yet heart breaking stories I have ever read and I cried for a solid 2 hours after I had finished it.

I finished Holding Up The Universe within two days, (reading for a few hours each day, I could not put this book down but sleep is a thing - I like to read in bed at night). I remember I used to be a major "book worm" and read every day when I was in primary school, but as the years went on, the internet exists, life happens and I felt like I never had time to read a book. Recently I've been trying to read more (an aim of mine for this year).
