This… this is why a lot of us teachers say Ofsted isn’t fit for purpose as it stands just now!

My review for Academy Arcanist by Shami Stovall is up on my blog! This was a super fun, fast-paced magical YA fantasy read that you should definitely pick up! bookhemianrhapsody.com/2023/07/17/aca…

I'd like to do my thing of gifting a class/teacher a full free class set of whatever their novel is when they get back to school. So what is your first class novel? Which year? Why? I'll pick someone and send them your way so your year gets off to a ripper. RTs appreciated.

My review for TheWriteReads OnTour is up on my blog. The Stranded is an interesting YA dystopian novel based on a grounded cruise ship. Unlike anything I've ever read it was a twisty story of gangs, rebellion and controlling governments! bookhemianrhapsody.com/2023/07/24/the…

It's my stop on TheWriteReads OnTour tour for The Stranded and The Exiled by Sarah Daniels. The first book was a real page turner and the second book in this dystopian duopoly did not disappoint! You can find my review here: bookhemianrhapsody.com/2023/07/30/the…

I am still having to fight Ryanair to get the refund for expenses I was promised when diverted and abandoned at Alicante. Was anyone else flying the Leeds Bradford/Malaga flight on the 22/10 and is fighting or has evidence that Ryanair did not keep their promises? Drop me a DM!

And the saga continues. Ryanair is now refusing to reimburse the full amount of money I was forced to pay claiming that my car hire expenses were ‘excessive’ (these expenses being less than £400 which anyone knows at short notice in an airport is good). This is beyond belief!

Just a bit of feedback for British Airways. A spicy chicken curry wrap is not what I want to eat for breakfast at the end of a 9 hour overnight flight. Gluten free doesn’t mean I can’t eat the bacon rolls or cheese and egg tortillas that everyone else does just GF versions!

That has to be some kind of penalty or disqualification for the Netherlands Cycle team. He literally head butted the British cyclist! #Olympics2024Paris
