Notes from Lola ✨

The Prodigal Daughter has returned.

Dearest Readers,

(me feeling like Lady Whistledown 😌)

A Long Overdue Catch-Up

Long time, no news! First off, let me apologise for my hiatus — life has been lifing (and not in a soft way 😭). But we move, because honestly, I no too get choice.

So… drumroll please
Major update: I’ve officially changed my publication name from Vibrant Life Chronicles to Notes from Lola.
Fresh start, same gist-loving, book-obsessed Lola.

Life Update

Lately, I’ve just been going. I left my relationship earlier this month — no drama, no fanfare, just two people realizing that love alone isn’t enough to make things work. But it is what it is. Soldier go, soldier come, barracks must remain.

In my last letter, I mentioned that I gained admission. My dear, this course na die. 😩
But thank God, I’m finally in my final semester! Balancing work and school has been a lot, but we keep pushing.

On the brighter side, I’ve been reading a lot and building my own little bookish community. I now have over 2,500 followers on Instagram — somebody shout CELEB! 🥳

I’ve also joined some excellent street teams and PR teams, and I’m having the time of my life being a baby book influencer.

No more talk; we’ll continue next month — if I don’t disappear again.
(Please, help me bind the spirit of inconsistency 😭.)

Oh! Before I forget — your girl donated blood for the first time! 👏👏👏

Reading Recap 📚

I read 18 books this month.
Don’t ask me how, I don’t even know myself. Just vibes and insomnia.

Quote of the Month 💭

“Don’t let them ruin your peace just because they can’t find theirs.”

Say it louder for the people at the back!

Song of the Month 🎶

“Believe” by Adekunle Gold
This song has been on serious repeat, and I’ve used it for over 10 IG contents — no shame in my game. 😂

New Word of the Month 📝

Bevy (noun)
/ˈbɛvi/

Begging Segment 🙏🏽

This newsletter is long, I know. But it’s been a while, so bear with me, people.

Lastly, please follow my IG and TikTok page @bookreviewbylola so I can be serious with this influencing career.

Hopefully, I’ll send out a new letter next month (fingers crossed 🤞🏽).
Thank you for being here — I promise to do better.

With truckloads of love,
Titilola 💕
