My Netflix Top 10!

Hey beaut's!

I'm soooo addicted to Netflix ya know guys and gals, I seem to watch sooooo many things on there, but I mean who doesn't love a relaxed evening (or day off lol) all cosy on the sofa filled with endless things to choose from on Netflix and plenty of sweets to gorge on...I know I do, so here's my top 10 Netflix favourites as it stands at the moment! 

To All The Boys I've Loved Before - This is probably my favourite Netflix original film, its focused on Lara Jean a sixteen year old student who has written love letters to all of her crushes whilst she was growing up, the letters then accidentally get sent out and she has to deal with the aftermath. It's a real teen, rom-com film which are my absolute favourite, theres plenty of sweet moments and it really gets you wanting certain relationships to form. 

Gavin & Stacey - If your after something a bit light-hearted that will have you lol'ing then Gavin and Stacey will really hit the spot. I can honestly watch these series over and over and still laugh every time, and theres a Christmas special on Netflix too which I have to admit I watch all year round, it's got me so exited for this years Christmas special I tell ya!

Sierra Burgess Is A Loser - Another Netflix original rom/com which I totally love! It's basically a cute catfish if that's ever a thing lol, it sees Sierra Burgess - a student who isn’t part of the cool crowd - text Jamey who has a crush on the most popular girl in Sierra's school - Veronica! Veronica pretends to give her number to Jamey (who thinks all of his Christmas' have come at once) but actually she's given him Sierra's number, Jamey starts texting who he thinks is Veronica when in fact it's Sierra, hopefully you get the gist! 

After Life - Now I love this series, it really takes you through all the motions I tell ya, I went from crying to laughing to nearly spitting my tea out in pure shock of some of the lines that the delightful Ricky Gervais has! It's dark-humour but honestly I cant recommend this season enough!

Riverdale - This is my current Netflix watch and I've managed to binge season one and two in a week and a half, I'm obsessed! Riverdale is an American teen drama/mystery series based on the characters of Archie Comics, I love how it keeps you guessing and wondering all the time, it really has you routing for different characters too, I love it and have just started season three!

Stranger Things - Who else is chomping at the bit for Stranger things to return, For those of you who haven't seen Stranger Things (um get to it girl ), it's a thrilling drama which is set in 1983 and has a slight goonies feel whilst also being slightly creepy but I was absolutely hooked from the very first episode, I would highly recommend giving it a go if you haven't already!

You - I actually watched the entire series of You in two days, once I started the series I literally couldn't stop watching and I have to say as creepy as the series is in parts I really enjoyed it and I cant wait to see what happens in the second season! 

Power - My goodness this is an epic show, it's basically a super intense drug, crime, drama that's based around a guy called James St Patrick or 'Ghost' as he's known in the drug world. Ghost is a pretty big deal in the drug world but is trying to get his life back on track but certain things drag him back down to that gritty lifestyle all the time, it also surrounds his family, children and best friend Tommy who all play a part! Roll on season 6 in August!

13 Reasons Why - This is quite a hard watch at times but wow I think all should watch this, especially the younger generation! It's a huge eye opener and the story is told so well, I've watched both seasons and hoping for season three to come on Netflix soon.

Sex Education - Ok Sex Education is great, I'm not going to lie it did take me a couple of episodes to get into, for me it wasn't a series that grabbed me from the off but once I was a few eps in I loved it! It discusses taboo subjects and takes you on a roller coaster of emotions and you get really invested in the characters.

What are your Netlfix favourites? What should I watch next? I'd love to know!

What I've Watched On Netflix Recently #2

Hey beaut's!

I'm soooo addicted to Netflix ya know guys and gals, I seem to be watching so many things on there recently, but I mean who doesn't love a relaxed evening (or day off lol) all cosy on the sofa filled with endless things to choose from on Netflix and plenty of sweets to gorge on...I know I do, so here's what I've watched and competed recently!

The Perfect Date - This Netflix original film literally went live last Friday and guess what...I watched it last Friday night! Well...it has Noah Centineo in and anything with him in I'm all over! The movie sees high school senior Brooks  — who’s strapped for cash - create an app called The Stand-In where he does just that. Women of all ages hire him to be a date for a variety of different occasions. He goes from pretending to be a cowboy, to an art connoisseur the list is endless, all of this is so he can get the funds to get into his dream Ivy League school. This is a rom-com so of course there's love interests a long the way, some of which get complicated and Brook's finds himself in hot water with his best friend too so he has some making up to do there! Would I watch this again..probably yes... is it as good as To All the Boys I Loved Before and Sierra Burgess Is a Loser? In my opinion no, but if you like a teen rom-com and have a bit of a think for our boy Noah then its definitely worth a watch!

After Life - Now I loved this series, it really takes you through all the motions I tell ya, I went from crying to laughing to nearly spitting my tea out in pure shock of some of the lines that Ricky has! Ricky Gervais actually wrote and directed the series and also plays the main character Tony! Tony's really going through the motions as his wife of 25 years has passed away and he's not dealing with the grief well, you kind of see how his attitude or should I say the grief affects his work, family and friends, it's dark-humour but honestly I cant recommend this season enough!

Dirty John - Now this is quite a creepy one, Dirty John tells the story of a successful woman who falls for a con-man. The series has so many twists and turns and really explores abuse and psychological manipulation and has quite the dramatic ending. If you do give it a go I would say stay with it as the first couple of episodes where a little lack luster for me but I kept with it and wow things got creepy good if that's such a thing ha ha!

 The Disappearance of Madeleine McCann - I mean lets face it we all have our own opinions on this but I was so keen to watch this documentary and get a more detailed look of what happened or what might of happened to Madeleine. It really does show what a complete shambles the investigation has been and to be honest I feel it leaves you with more questions than answers! Did you feel the same if you watched it?

Let me know if you’ve watched any of these TV shows beaut's and if you enjoyed them, also I'd love some more Netflix recommendations too!

My Current Netflix Favourites #2

Hey beaut's!

I have been watching so many movies and TV series on Netflix recently, mainly because I've been bed bound after catching Gastroenteritis which consisted of me staying in bed for like 10 days solid with nothing to do apart from feel ill and watch TV so Netflix was my saviour I must admit, so today I thought I would share a fewof my favourites from the last week or two!

You
I actually watched the entire series of You in two days, once I started the series I literally couldn't stop watching and I have to say as creepy as the series is in parts I really enjoyed it and I'm hoping for a second season! The series is focused on Joe - a bookstore manager who crosses paths with an aspiring female writer Beck, Joe ends up having a obsessive crush on Beck and uses social media and the internet at his disposal to become close to her, it becomes obvious that Joe will go to any length possible to get with Beck which is where all the creepiness comes in and we also get to see some of Joe's back story too which mysterious in itself!

Bird Box
Bird Box is an American thriller based on the 2014 novel of the same name by Josh Malerman. The main premise of the film is that an apocalypse is occurring and in order to stay alive, you must keep your blindfold on or keep your eyes closed. We basically follow main character Malorie played by Sandra Bullock trying to survive the apocalypse and I have to say it's quite spooky in parts, I mean just imagine how scary it would be if you had to live life blindfolded.... I have to say this movie had me hooked! 

Taylor Swift Tour
I bloody love Taylor Swift and if your a fan too then her Reputation Tour is a must watch, everything from the songs, the visuals, the outfits, the staging, it's all absolutely incredible! The stadium in Dallas that shes performing in is huge too, it holds 100'000 people and she done 2 nights theres as well, mad! 

The Princess Switch
I know this a Christmas-y one but I loved it so much that it had to be one of favourites, it stars Vanessa Hudgens who I thought was amazing in this seeing as she has to play two parts! It honestly takes me back to the Parent Trap days so if you loved that movie then you will love this, it's cheesy, cute and romantic, whats not to love!

Let me know if you’ve watched any of these TV shows or films beaut's and if you enjoyed them, also I'd love some more Netflix recommendations too!
