Sherbet Lane stationery box - May





I was actually away on holiday last week when my happy post arrived. It's always a nice feeling when you see it on your doormat but even nicer when you know it's at home waiting for you. We arrived home early on Monday morning and no I didn't open it straight away.

Later onMonday afternoon i got to sit down and open it on my own.
This months theme is Spring Clean, very apt for my house at the moment. We have been having lots of work done over the past seven weeks which includes a new kitchen which arrives this Monday! I'm a little excited about that! So in amongst all the chaos of my house - I get this, and as always its perfect.


Inside wrapped in tissue paper as always, is a journal, a Paperchase pen, three organisation sheets to help you organise your life, a decluttering one, a cleaning one and one for things you like doing. There is also an art card with the quote, "This could be the beginning of anything you want." That's going in my office/classroom! Two little sheets of stickers are also included, to use on the charts (or anywhere else!)



I'm not sure what I want to use the journal for...? I may use it as a food diary, as I need to start thinking about what i eat and hopefully lose some weight, or I might just use it as more of a bullet journal, either way its gorgeous and the pen is bright!


 I really like these organisation charts, especially the cleaning one, 
I could do with a few of these!


As always Claire's stickers are super cute. Does it spark joy? 
Gotta love a bit of Maria Kondo!!

And the last one is definitely going up in the classroom as an inspirational quote!


Thank you again for an amazing box Claire, and I can't wait till next months as the theme is
 The Secret Garden - one of my favourite books!

Watching You by Lisa Jewell

Watching you by Lisa Jewell really didn’t disappoint. As I’ve said before I’m a big fan of Lisa Jewell books, they are usually gripping stories and easy to read. This one was both. The story starts with a murder scene but the author doesn’t tell you who it is and this makes you start questioning every character in the story. The story follows the main characters Joey, a newly married women, who with her husband, are living with her brother and sister in law in their house on the terrace which is the main setting of the story. The next main character is Tom Fitzwilliam who lives two doors away with his wife and son. Tom is a superhead who has been brought in to turn around the local academy school. His son, Freddie, is portrayed as a bit odd, constantly watching and photographing people who live in the village and recording their day to day goings on. Hence the “Watching You.” The other main characters are Jenna and Bess who go to the academy. Bess is infatuated by Mr F and Jenna...

The Flatshare by Beth O’Leary

I bought this book myself after seeing so many positive reviews. I read it on my kindle.  The story is about Tiffy, and after leaving an abusive relationship and finally accepting it was over she needs to move out and find somewhere to live. Leon advertises his flat share, but it’s only a one bedroom flat but that’s okay as he works nights and spends  the weekends with his girlfriend.  It’s sounds ideal so after his girlfriends shows Tiffy around (checks her out) she agrees to move in. The relationship blossoms through the notes they leave each other. Until the inevitable happens. Tiffy oversleeps and Leon returns home. Their meeting not as expected.  The story is predictable, you know they end up together but it also looks at their friendships, Tiffy with Gertie and Mo and Leon with his brother, Richard and how they all help each other and help Tiffy get away from her abusive ex.  It is a great read and a good story which I really loved but there are topics cov...
