The Host and an Apple Crumble Recipe!

Hey there, Sally here!

I'm not to sure if many of you have read The Host by Stephanie Meyer? I wasn't a big fan of her Twilight series but I must say that this book is worth reading. I've read 75% of it according to my Kindle and it's so good I can't stop reading. Basically it's about this alien race that go to different planets and they have to live off a body like a parasite. The soul (what the aliens are called) take over your brain and basically you lose your identity. That's all I'm going to say because I'm scared I'm going to give too much away. Anyway, there's a movie as well for those of you who don't like reading and it's a great movie! I might do a little reading section in my blogs whenever I finish a book if you're interested?

I hope you enjoyed my recipe. It's delicious! Today I went and bought the Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer because my Covergirl one has almost run out. Hopefully it's as good as the reviews say but I'll let you guys know next week! 

I have an English exam on Monday which sucks but when that's done I'll be super happy! Hope you guys enjoyed this post! Until next time!
