While visiting family in Orlando, I picked up a few cute little ceramic and concrete plant pots from my favorite nursery. The shopping trip inspired me to peruse Etsy for more handmade planters for my patio garden. There are so many great styles, and I’m eager to share a handful of my favorites with you here! Here are the loveliest colorful ceramic and concrete planters pots that caught my eye.
When facial oils first started to make waves in the beauty community, I couldn’t help but wonder about how badly my combination skin would react to adding more oil to it. After giving a few types a chance, though, I’ve come to love facial oils!
An immersive novel based loosely on the myth of Pandora’s Box, Susan Stokes-Chapman’s Pandora is a brilliant Georgian historical fiction read. The novel follows Dora Blake, the orphaned daughter of two classicist collectors who aspires to design jewelry. Throughout the story, she strives to free herself from her tyrannical uncle’s control. Drama and lovely descriptions of ancient artifacts ensue. If you’re a fan of mythological reinterpretations, you’re going to need to order this book immediately!
My friend gave me this amazing Pride & Prejudice-themed novel for my birthday and I stayed up super late last night finishing it. Longbourn is a retelling of Jane Austen’s Pride & Prejudice from the perspective of the servants. It was a quaint narrative, giving the reader a glimpse of the world around the Bennet sisters and the realities of daily life.

While my best laid plans of keeping a proper reading log fell by the wayside this year, I did manage to get a ton of reading done. That is, I read more books for pleasure than I have since probably high school — definitely since undergrad. While I plan to get into more book content in the new year, I wanted to close out 2022 with a round up of the best books I read this year.
