I have been an avid reader my entire life and love collecting books, reading books, recommending books... so I thought I would compile a list of all my recommendations and why I love them. From children's literature to romance to non-fiction to whatever else I can think of, I hope this list provides you with your new read or your new favorite book!

I love the fitness lifestyle, but I hate going to the gym. I always feel like people are judging me or looking at me and I get so in my head about it. Here's what I've gathered for my home workouts, and the best workout clothes as someone who lives in athletic clothing. I'm also going to share some of my recommendations for what I've added to my diet to boost protein or things that just make me feel good idk. I'm still new to trying to live a healthier lifestyle (I gained a ton of weight during Covid and have been on the journey to feel better in my body and make healthier choices) (I'm down almost 30 pounds btw) but anyway, take what works for you and leave what doesn't, everyone's health journeys may look different and thats ok because you're not all 5'3 26 year old women, right?

I've struggled with acne my whole life, mainly hormonal. I still generally bad breakouts around my period, and these are the products I have used that actually work! I share these with everyone who wants to start their skincare journey, because its important to me that products are worth it (they work, and they don't break the bank). Hope this helps!

I worked downtown for 9 months, and still take every opportunity I get to visit the city. I love downtown, but I want this list to explore every neighborhood (as soon as I get to all of them). These are my Chicago favorites!

My hair has always grown really quickly, I've grown it out down to my butt then shaved it off for charity and grown it out to my butt again. These are things I actually recommend as someone who is low-maintenance and thrifty.

I lived in Iowa City for two years and go back and visit friends all the time! Here are some places I recommend as someone who has been both a local and a tourist! My boyfriend attended the university for grad school, so our point of view is slightly older than that of the average patron, but we still know all the best places! We just maybe prefer a quieter bar.

My favorite place to day-trip from the suburbs. About a 2 hour drive from where I am, about 20 minutes outside of Madison. Mount Horeb draws a lot of insperation from the Swedish ancestry of many of the settlers, which you will see when you visit from the Swedish gift store to the trolls around town to the shops all themed after their scandenavian roots.

I have lived in apartments since graduating college and I can't wait to have a house where i can be as maximalist as I want (if only i had unlimited amounts of money) these are all things I would purchase given no-budget and having places to put them.

I live in Schaumburg and I love discovering new places around the 'burbs, these are my best finds.
