    As someone who has struggled with eating issues in the past, I think Milk Fed is going to be going on my Goodreads account. It’s such a unique topic. All the books on this list sound and look lovely, thank you for sharing!

    Excellent suggestions here. I’m currently reading a good one for all the Thriller lovers out there – The Therapist. Given to me by my mum.

    I’m a non- fiction reader, so “You’re Still so Young” sounds good, even though I’m not 30- something. “Your Fully Charged Life” also sounds worth reading.
