Watching
Toni Erdmann is a nearly three hour long German comedy but don't let that put you off! It is warm, intelligent, funny, sharp, weird and wonderful. I loved it and laughed, cried and cringed at its insight into a father daughter relationship.
Re-reading
I spent a few days in bed last week suffering from the hideous bug that is circling, and for some reason, my flu-addled mind decided to make me start re-reading The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood. Cheerful? No. Alarmingly resonant this year? Yes. Bloody brilliant? Also yes.
