‘The Life Impossible’ by Matt Haig

Matt Haig is one of my favourite authors. So it was lovely to get stuck into this fantastical novel.

Retired maths teacher Grace Winters is left a run-down house on a Mediterranean island by a long-lost friend, who mysteriously disappeared. Grace searches for answers about her friend’s life, and how it ended. What she uncovers is stranger than she could have dreamed.

Really liked it. A book of two halves which works really well.

It has been a tough week. Today was no different, a full day teaching followed by a meeting about ‘behaviour’. So I headed to the playing field. It didn’t go quite as planned, the head-torch died, so I had to head home and get a replacement.

Although, it wasn’t all bad. I bagged myself a Strava badge.

As for the run…

I’ve been pretty good lately about ensuring I do the majority of my marking at school. Today I had to bring some home.

Tonight, was as usual, hard work. Although, I did swim a little further than usual: 748m in total.
