May Favorites + J.Crew Giveaway

I know, I know – a few weeks ago, the blog was on a holiday schedule, but this week (when there’s an actual holiday), it’s not. Don’t question that strange schedule that is my life! Anyway, here are some of the things I loved in May. It’s a shorter version than usual because I’m working on finals plus my health plus yada yada yada. Check out the things I loved in May and/or enter the giveaway at the bottom of the post! My birthday is next Sunday, June 5, and so I’m kicking off the celebrations now. And at some point there will also be a birthday ad discount, so keep an eye on Twitter!

Reading

The Time of Singing – This historical fiction novel is about Ida de Tosny, an unwilling mistress of King Henry II, and Roger Bigod, Earl of Norfolk. I love it!

The Royal We – This is based on William and Kate, and while some of it is a little too close to reality (there’s only so many similarities I can take), it’s a wonderful book. It’s their take on what the relationship would be like of a modern prince and an American girl who he marries. Again, very close to reality, but still great.

I listen to books on Audible! It’s a great way to pass the time when commuting or traveling. Get 2 books for free when you sign up for a digital membership (which is so, so worth it to me since I listen to long books that are way more expensive than the monthly membership charge).
