Good morning to everyone except Nick Cummins!

Kidding, kidding. In all seriousness, though, what the HECK happened on The Bachelor last week? Plus, can you be a feminist and love rap music, and what's with the return of the noughties' biggest Hollywood stars? Mischa Barton and Lindsay Lohan are ev-er-y-where.

Our recommendations for the week: How To Be Perfect by Holly Wainwright and Nine Perfect Strangers by Liane Moriarty.
