Sleeping isn't something I usually have trouble with, but I had so many thoughts whirring around in my head that it didn't matter how tired I was, I just couldn't drift off. I'm not keen on anything too medicinal to help me sleep so although I'm also usually quite skeptical about products that claim to help you drift off I gave the Neom Pillow Mist a try and it works a treat - I'm usually asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow.
When my hands get cold it instantly puts me in a bad mood, is that odd? So even though it wasn't super cold during October I was wearing these New Look Handwarmers and not caring about the people who were giving me funny looks. I like that they're fingerless so I don't have to worry about having to take them off to rummage around in my purse for enough coins for my afternoon hot chocolate!
- Chasing Bunnies Necklace from Love Hearts & Crosses
I've had this sweet bunny necklace from Love Hearts & Crosses in my collection for a long time and I love it just as much now as I did when I first got it. Yes I am a crazy bunny lady, I can't help it! Love Hearts & Crosses is one of my favourite online jewellery boutiques, if you love jewellery you will absolutely adore having a look around because I know you'll find something that you'll want to treasure!
- Qualy Desk Bunny from Zalando*
Admittedly when I picked this Qualy Desk Bunny out from Zalando I didn't know how useful it would prove to be, I just really wanted it because it's super cute. Yep, crazy bunny lady appears again! But I've actually been really surprised just how often I seem to need paperclips! And yes, I'm very obsessive about putting them back when I'm finished with them because the carrot just wouldn't be the same without them!
- The Tales of Beedle the Bard by J.K. Rowling
I adore The Tales of Beedle the Bard, there's not really another word to describe my love for it! It's such a perfect addition to my bookshelf and I love the sweet illustrations throughout. It has been and will continue to be a book I turn to in the evenings if I'm not sure what to read because there's something so incredibly comforting about it. I'm so glad I decided to purchase this on a little bit of a whim, it's wonderful.
- The Perks of being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
I have a collection of jumbled thoughts that will hopefully make it into a review post very soon about The Perks of being a Wallflower. I re-read this in October and fell in love all over again. It's a book that I think I'll always treasure, it has so many memories attached to it and I know it's one that means a lot to so many people. I don't think my review will be particularly balanced because it means so much and I find it super difficult to detach myself, but I hope you won't mind too much! Have you read it? I'd love to know what your thoughts are!
What was your favourite book that you read last month?
Love, Jennie

Really intrigued by the Neom pillow mist, some nights I just can't switch off.
ReplyDeleteI only read one book last month (boo!) which was Revenge Wears Prada, the Devil Wears Prada sequel. Nothing spectacular, just a nice easy read!

ReplyDeleteI haven't read a book properly in a while. My silly brain fog wont let me :( But the most recent book I've been reading and getting towards the end of is Tina Feys' Bossypants which is hilarious. Not my usual type of book but that woman is so funny!

DeleteI love the neom mist & the Perks of Being a Wallflower. Still haven't made it to watch the film, but it's on my to do list still :) I'm always afraid of films ruining a book for me. But I shouldn't be - I mean, Emma Watson is in it, right? Have you seen the movie?
ReplyDeleteThe movie is perfect, if you love the book you'll adore the movie! <3
DeleteI have the Kindle edition of Beedle the Bard but it's just not the same when my actual book collection is missing one! Going to have to invest in a real copy :) also the bunny necklace and paperclip holder are so cute! xx

Thank you! Aww I know, it's a sweet little book! <3
DeletePerks is so good! Definitely one of my favourite books (I'm not saying I read it because of Emma Watson, no way, where did you get that idea? ) and I'd love it if you did a 'personal' review of it! I think it's not only the story but also the memories that go with it that make a book special (no, I'm not thinking of Harry Potter here haha)
ReplyDeletexx Jenni
Hehe! Emma is fabulous in the film and Harry Potter is so special <3
DeleteI need to buy The Perks of Being A Wallflower, it's been on my to read list for ages now :)

DeleteI'm seeing handwarmers pop up all over the place, maybe it's because I've learnt to crochet and lots of people seem to crochet them!? I have added The Perks of Being A Wallflower to my "to read" list xx
ReplyDeleteQuite Frankly She Said - UK Lifestyle Blog
I wish I could crochet! xo
DeleteI love love love that bunny necklace! I do love the desk organizer as well, but the necklace is on top! :D You reminded me that I still need to read the perks of being a wallflower. I might do that after I finish the HP series. I did not read (anything other than university stuff) for a while :(
ReplyDeleteAww, it's easy to get stuck in just uni stuff, I know that feeling! Really do recommend Perks <3
DeleteThose handwarmers look so so nice, and that bunny necklace is adorable

DeleteOh my gosh that little bunny necklace is so adorable. Love it, it's so you! I love "Perks of Being a Wallflower" - I've probably read it about a dozen times and never get sick of it. It's a great read and I actually liked the movie too :)
ReplyDeleteLoved the movie too, it's cute <3
DeleteI absolutely adore the NEOM pillow mist too, it's such a beautiful scent which instantly makes me feel relaxed and at ease. xx

Deletei feel the same about october... a very mixed feelings kind of month. yet how is it november already!?!?!? i'm looking forward to your blogmas hehe such a good idea. i did 12 days of christmas last year on my blog too (blogging everyday for 12 days till xmas) so i'll probably do it again! i love bunnies too and i can't get over your desk bunny. the green paper clips to make the carrot? g e n i u s !!!!! super super cute :) and i'm looking forward to reading your thoughts on the "perks" book, it definitely tugged at my heartstrings too and left me thinking about a lot of stuff
ReplyDeleterachel x

Ahh that's such a good idea, looking forward to that! It's one of those books I think everyone should read once <3
DeleteI feel the exact same about cold hands. I also like to hide them because I have really bad circulation so my hands go blue, and people actually ask me if I'm okay. I love them New Look hand warmers. I have a pair of their gloves from a few years ago that are mittens, but you can pull the top back for fingerless gloves. Perfect :)
ReplyDeleteMy favourite book of the past month has been quite a strange one, but it's called "the secret race". It's about one of Lance Armstrong's cycling team-mates Tyler Hamilton. I am a fan of cycling anyways, but it's just so well written that I think anyone could enjoy it.
Oh that sounds really interesting! xo
DeleteGloves so cute!

DeleteHope November is by far a much better month for you sweet! <3 The Neom Mist sounds really lovely, I'm the same with thoughts whirring round my mind late at night- so frustrating! Your bunnies necklace is adorable!
ReplyDeleteSophie at soinspo ❤
Thank you lovely <3
DeleteReally like this post. I was sitting in my local cafe and thought I'll have to get a copy of the Beedle Bard book. Sounds good. Yes Ocober was also a funny ole month for me too. Not so good. But sure November is here and its got off to a better start. I hope its a White Christmas too (Whyt will have to wear somthing bright so I can see him!) Love the Bunny neclkace xo
ReplyDeleteAww hehe <3
DeleteThose hand warmers look fab! I hate it when my hands are cold too! x
