Welcome to BiblioLifestyle!
My singular goal is to help avid and aspiring readers and hombodies discover their next great read, create a space where we can talk about it, and inspire you to live a more slow, cozy and intentional life!
What You Can Expect:
I believe that reading is more than a hobby—it's a way of life. So my mission is to inspire you to read more and live better by providing:
Curated Book Lists: Discover themed and genre-specific recommendations to help you find your next great read.
Seasonal Reading Guides: Your one stop shop to best new reads each season, along with things to do, recipes and lots more.
Lifestyle Tips: Explore articles on creating cozy spaces, self-care rituals, budget-living and embracing a homebody lifestyle.
Community Engagement: Join our monthly online book club, the Bring Your Own Book (BYOB) Club, and connect with fellow readers.
My Newsletter Schedule:
To keep you informed and inspired, I send out three newsletters each week:
Sundays: A weekly content roundup of everything I’ve been doing, creating, and sharing for the past week.
Tuesdays: Dive into personal essays, behind-the-scenes insights, and reflections on the reading life.
Fridays: Receive curated book lists, reading tips, author spotlights, and lifestyle content to enrich your weekend.
You can also expect bonus emails from my monthly series:
Seasonal Stories: Offers monthly reflections inspired by the rhythm of the year. Each edition is a thoughtful blend of seasonal inspiration and bookish joy, designed to help you slow down and savor the moments that matter most.
Cozy Chronicles: A monthly invitation to a more intimate side of my homebody life. From exclusive essays to practical guides and personal stories, this series will share my experiences as someone who strives to live a cozy and intentional life at home—one season, one story, one ritual at a time.
Join Our Community:
Beyond the newsletters, this a space where we can connect, share, and grow together:
Bring Your Own Book (BYOB) Club: Our unique book club invites you to read any book you choose and share your thoughts in our monthly meetings on Zoom. No assigned reading—just pure bookish joy!

More About Me + BiblioLifestyle
The long and short story of how we got here!
About BiblioLifestyle
I’ve been writing an email newsletter via a traditional email service provider for many years, but more seriously and for myself, for over five years. Since hitting send on January 10th, 2020, I’ve never missed a Friday since my first issue — whether rain or shine, public holidays, Christmas, or even a hurricane (yes, I live in Florida.)
I’ve now made the leap, and I’m hosting my newsletter here exclusively on Substack since Friday, December 13th!
About Me (Victoria)
Hello again, I’m Victoria, the writer behind BiblioLifestyle! I’ve lived in over five countries, so I often joke I’m from everywhere and nowhere. But I’ve put down roots in Florida since immigrating to the United States in 2016, and I now call this crazy experiment home (and yes, I love it, flaws and all.)
I’ve been a lifelong reader who has experienced several bouts of analysis paralysis, reading slumps, and being easily distracted by new and buzzy books. But I’m now at the point where I follow the beat of my drum, and it has served me well in both my reading and personal life.
I believe in living a balanced life, so you’ll also find lifestyle-themed content that reflects what I do in my daily life. I often think about wellness, slowing down, and living a more intentional and fulfilling life. Journaling is a big part of my self-care routine, and practicing seasonal living has improved my health, mood, and overall lifestyle. So these are some of the themes outside book recommendations you’ll see in my writings.
I’m not here to tell you what to read or what to do. Instead, please think of me as a friend providing you with a list of ideas and recommendations, and your job is to say yes to the suggestion that immediately catches your attention, aligns with your interests, and that you’re in the mood for.
