Autumn is well and truly upon us, so I wanted to collect together five books I think are the perfect blend of cosy or gothic, autumnal vibes for this time of year. These books are all the perfect, cosy vibes to get snuggled under a blanket with and read the long, dark nights away. Rebecca, Daphne du Maurier This is the perfect gothic horror, the dark atmosphere is thoroughly captivating and the use of anonymity of the main character almost makes the reader feel alienated from our protagonist, which makes for an uncomfortable plot in the very best way.  I really enjoyed the suggestion of f ..read more

I’m sure I’m not alone in saying the Instagram algorithm is getting me down at the moment, it really is. I pour so much time and effort into my posts and at the moment I’m seeing them get sometimes half the amount of likes they were receiving 8-10 months ago. So why is this happening and what can we do about it? What is the Instagram algorithm? To start with, there isn’t a single algorithm that controls Instagram, but many. The algorithms are the reason you see X posts on your feed, the reason your post reaches X audiences and the reason you find the new accounts you do on the explore page. Wh ..read more
