Book Review: "I Think You’ll Find It’s a Bit More Complicated Than That" by Ben Goldacre
Again, used bookstores for random finds is probably your best bet when it comes to wanting to read books. Nobody has any money nowadays and well, bookshops like Waterstones and Foyles are great for gifting but when it comes to reading - I think there's more to be said about buying someone else's book. Sometimes there are notes in them, sometimes there are weird birthday cards with phone numbers in them (yes, I found that once) and of course, there's that Andy Warhol book where I was legitimately confused about what I had found. At the moment, I'm sitting around drinking coffee, so let's have a look at this weird compilation of journalism by a man who once wrote for the Guardian Newspaper.

Book Review: "The Descent of Man" by Grayson Perry
Well, I'm back to reading random books. The Descent of Man is one of those books I have never heard of at all, and I even refrained from looking at the blurb. I got it as my free book on a 'buy three get one free' deal and though it's quite short, it has a lot to say about the state of masculinity. This book has been read and reviewed by quite a lot of people so I'm kind of wondering how I missed it when it first came out in 2016. But, as always, Penguin Nonfiction never seems to disappoint - so let's take a look at where Grayson Perry stands on the state of modern masculinity and the ways in which men can improve their relation to their own gender and hopefully, the way in which they interact with the opposite gender.
