Finding Sanctuary on the Page:
March Regency Reads & Rituals

There is a specific kind of magic in the early morning—the blue hour before the sun fully commits to the sky. It is the time I reserve for my "Quiet Pages" and my Kindle, letting the world stay still just a little longer.

Lately, I have been escaping into the Regency era, where the stakes are matters of the heart, and the pace of life feels as slow as the steam rising from a morning cup. If you’ve been following the #BookwormAesthetic trend with me, you know it’s about more than just the story; it’s about building a creative sanctuary in the midst of a busy life.

On My Kindle This March

This month, my Kindle Paperwhite has been a portal to 19th-century ballrooms and quiet country estates. I’ve been sourcing most of my historical finds through Kindle UnlimitedKindle Unlimited, which has been a wonderful way to indulge my Regency obsession without cluttering the physical shelves!

The Ritual: Journaling Through the Mystery

I don’t just close the book when the chapter ends; I bring the story to my journal. Using these Regency romances as a spark for my Morning Pages has turned my writing practice into a true indulgence. Here is how I’ve been layering my thoughts lately:

• The Narrative Dump: I use my first page to "interrogate" my thoughts, much like a Regency investigator. I name the things weighing on me, look at them with a bit of logic, and suddenly they feel much smaller.
• Regency Ephemera: Inspired by the elegant letters in Sophie Laporte’s world, I’ve been using handmade mini envelopes and strips of paper to tuck away small "wins" and gratitude slips.
• Pressed Botanical Memories: Since these books feature such vivid English countryside settings, I’ve been layering my pages with pressed rose petals and ferns kept from quiet walks in my flower garden. It bridges the gap between the stories I love and my own beautiful life.
