Valentine’s Day is right around the corner which means it’s time for chocolates and steamy romance. Ever since college, I’ve loved VDAY. I’m a sucker for the cuteness of it all and will gladly take any opportunity given to snack on Reese cups. For all my peanut butter cup lovers, what’s your go-to? The miniatures are my favorite! I know everyone loves the seasonal shapes but I think the choc to pb ratio on the miniatures is chef's kiss!!
V-DAY is a must after the holidays are over and that winter depression sets in. I love having something fun to look forward to and whether you’re single or taken, there are so many ways to celebrate and make it fun. Two of my favorite activities (besides candy, obvs) is marathoning my favorite rom-coms and reading a lil' steamy romance novel. Also shoutout to my Target which definitely understood the assignment this year. They have some great book options out in stores right now so ya'll know I couldn't not buy. Here are my top picks for all the V-DAY vibes:
You can read the synopsis + shop each book by clicking on the title below:
+ The Chase by Elle Kennedy+ The American Roommate Experience by Elena Armas
+ By a Thread by Lucy Score
I'm starting with The Chase by Elle Kennedy first which has been described as an opposites attract, sorority girl likes the "nerdy jock" that's her brother's best friend vibe. I think "nerdy jock" is a new one for me though when it comes to social class? Reminded me of the lunch scene convo from Mean Girls, lol. PS-- always a great pick to watch for Galentine's Day! It sounds cute so I'm excited for it and also By a Thread and The American Roommate Experience. I've been reading The Body Keeps The Score so some lighthearted, fluffy romance is definitely a welcome change right now. It's a wellness/health book about healing from trauma that's really interesting and insightful but it's a pretty heavy topic. Sometimes I have to take a breather when it comes to the self-help books.

Movie-wise, I always tend to go for the same ones every year. I'll link my post with the Top 10 Movies to Watch on Valentine's Day for you here. It's an oldie but the movies are all still goodies! Let me know if you have a go-to movie/movies that would also be worth watching!
