Feel the need to take a deeper look inside yourself? Feel the need to give your brain a recharge from the day to day grind? Why not read a good book and give yourself a 30 Minute Getaway! Here’s what you’ll need:
Book: Black Boxes by Caroline Smailes
Open the box on this incredible novel. It tells the story of Anna, a woman who is unravelling from the inside out, and her daughter Pip.
Anna has closed herself inside her room, her Black Box, and is examining her life after her the man she loves leaves her. Pip is examining her life as it is now, lonely, horrible and difficult.
When the two boxes crash together, the results will be incredible…
One of the best novels of 2008 and one of the best novels ever, Black Boxes transcends genres to become something different. Something incredible. If you haven’t read this novel, do it now.
Before it’s too late…
Music: The Trouble With Being Myself by Macy Gray
Macy Gray’s third album may at first seem a little tepid, perhaps even shy after her incredible debut How Life Is and her sophomore effort The Id. At first, it seems almost too soft. But really, that’s the albums power.
Though it may take a couple of listens, The Trouble With Being Myself is actually Grays most introspective, most personal work to date and perhaps her best work.
If you’re in the mood to clean house, to sit down with a good book or a good glass of wine, you can’t go wrong with this album. It’ll make you think AND put you in a good mood. It’s soulful, beautiful music that makes you think AND makes you want to have a good glass of wine.

Can’t ask for more than that.
