...GCSE results day, of course. Duh.
For the un-British audience (other than derision, scorn, and pity) an explanation of the joys of the education system here:

What the Greeks Did For Us -- My View On The Olympics
Yep, they're over. So, as the BBC have already shown us with their wonderful little Olympic montage, it is time to look back and reflect... and wonder what happens next (other than the Paralympics, which, as it is on C4, won't be half as good, regardless of all that 'Thanks For The Warm Up' rubbish).
...Just to clarify, the montage was only wonderful thanks to Benedict Cumberbatch's lovely voice. In case you thought I was really that sad.
Anyway, if you live in 'GB' like I do, you're probably already sick of the whole Olympic review thing, but tough. This is what I thought. NB: it's not all negative, don't worry. Keep reading, and you'll get there.

Review: Revived by Cat Patrick
Yay! A book by one of my new favourite authors! Yay!
Daisy has died five times; she has been Revived five times; she has changed her name and relocated to a new state five times. But this time, she doesn't want any of that: she wants life.

I'm no tech-wizard, but...
...the Book Reviews page of this blog seems to be down. I don't know how, or why, or if it's just on my computer, or what, but I apologise if you can't get on it (like a car bonnet). All of my book reviews have been posted on this home page here, so searching through it may help you find what you're looking for.
And no, I don't like those sorts of TV shows, I've just seen the adverts.
Out!

Review: Existence by Abbi Glines
Okay those of you who have read this will know exactly why I was all OMFG when I read the blurb on my Kindle -- I love this type of guy character -- but for those of you who haven't read it yet (but definitely should), I won't ruin it the way it did for me, since you don't find out what on earth Dank actually is for AGES.
Pagan has always seen souls; she's used to it. But when one unexpectedly speaks to her, her world turns upside-down... and that's before the kid without a body ends up enrolloing in her school as rockstar singer Dank out of Cold Soul. What will she tell her boyfriend?
