Thursday Tracks: Here by Alessia Cara

So I know that I run a book blog but I saw this feature on Gone With The Words and thought it would be interesting to tell you about my music tastes with the Thursday Tracks feature. So let's get started...

The song that I am going to talk about this week is...

Here by Alessia Cara

I think that Alessia Cara is definitely more popular in Canada and the US than she is here however I have known about her since the summer. I think that she will definitely become more popular in the UK this year and I am going to see her in concert in March. This song sums up me going out on a night out to a T and that is why I relate to it so much. It is also just a great song. Hope you enjoy my pick for this week!

What is your favourite song this week? Leave it in the comments below.

See you soon,

I also have been really into different genres like horror and the occasional thriller which have not read from before and I'm interes

All thoughts are my own. * Title: The Great Godden Author: Meg Rossoff Publisher: Bloomsbury Source: NetGalley ( Bookshop UK | Hive | Goodreads | Storygraph ) Book Summary: Everyone talks about falling in love like it’s the most miraculous, life-changing thing in the world.

This was because I was just reading what I wanted to and because I was not really reading at all. So let's see what I read this year...
