The Read-Cap: Week of July 13, 2024

Discussing the books I read this past week and what's currently sitting on my TBR.

After spending a week reading about mermaids, I decided to head back over into the dark romance category with The Chaos Crew by Eva Chance & Harlow King before I jumped ships to read the final book in the Princes part of the Royals of Forsyth University series by Angel Lawson & Samantha Rue.

Last three minor character takes for now. Then back to starting writing WIPs that will most likely not be finished.

I know I didn't cover the Beks (3 rebeccas) and Iona, but I think this is mostly everyone else.

Definite spoilers below:

♡ Casey - Not sure if she had feelings for Bela or not but what else can we say about the ex vice president. Honestly besides the accident, she seems like she would be the one that everyone is going to to get help with the assignment. The "responsible" one that often enough is hiding the vodka behind her back.

♡ Anamaria - giving us perpetual "dorm mom" vibes. Trying to make sure Jasmin doesn't die, always looking stressed. I would guess some sort of humanities major. The one who makes sure you have your backpack for class and Pain pills for your hangovers.

♡ Mj - Call me basic, but there will forever be a place in my heart for a laid-back girl in a hoodie. Without giving too much away, I suppose there is a good reason for her lack of stress. Besides her eventual relationship with Dani (board is life), she's the pizza hookup on campus. I also suspect if you needed party favors, she knows where to get them...ahem.

I mean I'm adventurous but I'ma need something more than shots to try licorice or purple pizza.

Babies In The Walls from Rebecca Manley on Vimeo.

An astonishing and candid insight into the changes in a new mother's brain postpartum.

⚠️ TRIGGER WARNING: This poem is a personal account of one such change and could be triggering for some people.

Performed by the brave and remarkable Davina Moon (Wreck, No Time to Die, Ted Lasso), this is the second film in my Postpartum Poems Project - the aim of which is to empower as many mothers, birthing people and parents as possible.

For more information about the project as a whole, please see the first film in the series 'Cluster Feeding' performed by the extraordinary Victoria Yeates (Fantastic Beasts, a Discovery of Witches, Call the Midwife), also available to view via my Vimeo page.

Postpartum mental health is not an area discussed in much detail during pregnancy. In our society there is very little, if any, conversation about the impact of birth on the mind both positive and negative.

✨ I was lucky that the experience, that inspired this poem, was a positive one full of wonder. However for others the mental health shifts they come up against during this fragile time can impact their lives negatively. This is why, I think, it is so important to share our stories and emphasise that whilst change is completely normal, if the changes you are experiencing are having an adverse effect on your life and you are struggling, it is of paramount importance to reach out for the right support.

❤️ When I first spoke to Davina about performing the poem, I knew nothing about her personal experience with perinatal mental health. But she had had a tough time postpartum and initially found the work quite triggering. For me it is very moving, especially under these circumstances, that she has taken this poem and made it her own. I feel privileged to have collaborated with such a talented, open and warm actor on this project and that both our positive and negative experiences have combined to produce a powerful and emotive performance. It is my hope that this film will serve to open up more dialogue around postpartum mental health as well as make those climbing their own personal mountains feel seen and supported.

‘If you or someone you love is experiencing perinatal mental health disorders, call or text the bilingual PSI Helpline for free support and resources at 1-800-944-4773 or visit postpartum.net.  Remember you are not alone and you are not to blame. Help is available. You will get better.’ - @postpartumsupportinternational

The Read-Cap: Week of July 6, 2024

Discussing all the #books I read this last week over on my blog and what I'm planning on reading next.

This week ended up being mermaid themed. I finished reading Ocean of Sin and Starlight before going on to read The Shepherd King duology. It seemed like a great next choice plus the artwork for these books drew me in. If you are new to the Read-Cap this a weekly post I’m doing where I share what I’ve been reading in the last week and what I plan on reading next. If I finish a book and decide not…
