I was gifted a year of Book of the Month for my birthday one year and to date it is one of the best things I've received. There are few things as satisfying as getting truly lost in the pages of a good book — and it'll provide for a great distraction for your mind if you've recently been watching something super scary. Each month you'll be permitted to choose one of four books, all of which are different genres. Then the book you selected will be delivered to your door. Magic! Excuse me, I need to re-up my subscription.

Getting some alone time is as easy as throwing these headphones on. With 17,844 five-star reviews on Amazon, you know they're the real deal!
Promising review: "I waited over a month to write this review because I thought no way could these headphones actually be this good for the price. But I use them all day, every day, and I have never been more impressed with headphones under $50. I have sensitive ears with headphones and am super picky, but these are so comfortable I can sleep in them. They charge fast, are easy to pair Bluetooth or wire jack, and have handy play/pause and fwd/rwd buttons. Overall definitely worth the buy, highly recommend." —Whitney O'Neil

One of my favorite things to do during the cold winter months is stay home, put on my comfiest sweatpants, and spend HOURS working on an intricate puzzle. Fellow introverts — you're gonna love this.
Promising review: "This is a real review! I believe I've spotted some one star duplicates on other buffalo products and wanted to let everyone know that not true in my case. No missing pieces, no bent or damaged pieces. This was my first undertaking of any puzzle and although 1000 pieces seemed like a lot at first it was a fun and challenging puzzle. There were a few pieces that fit together too easy in places they didn't belong but that was part of the challenge. I'm ordering another from them for sure." —Mike

Cats and introverts go together like peanut butter and jelly, which is why these soft socks should be at the top of your wish list. They're whimsical and perfect for wearing around the house.
Promising review: "What a pleasant surprise when I received the socks. They are even cuter in person than in the picture. I can't talk enough about the quality. Unexpected at this price. They are so soft and comfortable. If you know a cat lover, this is the perfect gift. And if you are looking for a fantastic set of socks, you just found it !" —Chippy

When I first started attending yoga I was SUPER self-conscious. I hated comparing myself to more advanced yogis or being under the watchful eye of the instructor. To practice my ~moves~ (or get a workout in without having to leave the house) I bought a yoga mat to use in the comfort of my own home. This one comes in a bunch of dazzling designs, so you can choose the one that makes you feel most *zen*.
Promising review: "This is a great yoga mat. I'll admit I don't know what makes a great yoga mat or an adequate one or even a terrible one. Maybe the terrible ones smell bad and are slippy? Anyhow, I'm trying to find more *chill* in my life and I'm starting with some home-yoga (so only my cats can mock me). This does a good job of providing grip and keeping me 1cm off my floor and the cat hair that's on my floor. (I swear I vacuum, but you get in downward dog for more than 10 seconds and you can see lots of tiny tuftlets-of-love from my feline companions. Suggestions for the best de-pet-hairing-vacuum cleaner appreciated!). Anyway — it's a good mat and pretty. Namaste, y'all!" —AmandaHuggenkiss

I would argue that there are few things as satisfying as climbing under the covers to lay on top of fresh sheets. These flannel sheets take that experience and make it 10x better. The velvet flannel provides a luxurious feel you'll never want to leave. Sorry to your friend you were supposed to meet for brunch.
Promising review: "Oh. My. Heavens. We had considered flannel sheets for years, and we even bought a set once, but had to return them because they didn't fit our deep-pocketed mattress and just gave up. We only want them when it's cold out, not all year long. So, the years passed and we had COLD sheets. This set was a game-changer!! They truly do have deep pockets and fit our queen bed very well. They washed nicely and are thicker than expected. Getting into bed at night with these sheets feels SOOOOOO warm compared to our other sheets!! Love these." —recycle-it

If Joanna Gaines says I can stay home you better believe that's what I'm doing! In her latest book, the DIY diva explains how to create a home that reflects the personality of those living there. Use it as a guide to make your favorite place (home) more inviting than ever.
Promising review: "I couldn't wait to get this book yesterday, and I love it already. It is another top-quality book with thick pages and binding and will last a lifetime. The images in this book are beautiful — exactly how I like to decorate. She didn't release this book with pictures to make you envious like the ones on Pinterest, she released this book to show how even *you* can design simple yet elegant spaces. I love the concept." —Noelanii

I've been using this service for a few months now and it has been fantastic. With the subscription you build a "closet" and highlight four "priority" pieces. Then Bloomingdales will send you four items from the "closet" to keep for as short or long as you need. Once you send 'em back in a pre-paid envelope, you'll be sent four more! No need to talk to a single pushy store clerk. If you find something you love, you can even buy it at a members-only price. Not a bad deal — definitely a great, splurge-worthy gift!
Get a one month subscription from MyList at Bloomingdales for $99 (also available in two or three month subscriptions).

From the moment I put the headset over my eyes I thought "Wow, I never have to leave the house again!!!" From finally getting a chance to handle a lightsaber while battling it out in the Star Wars universe (which comes with the current Oculus Quest bundle!), adventuring in nature via National Geographic, and battling Angry Birds in a whole new way there is so much at-home fun to be had thanks to this system. I'm personally more introverted, but I still enjoy spending time with family and friends. The Quest has been a great way for me to have a good time interacting with my loved ones without feeling overwhelmed by TOO much chatter. I brought it to Thanksgiving and we had a blast taking turns playing with it. More recently my sister and her boyfriend came over and we spent hours giggling watching one another play. Super fun!

Promising review: "I have a $120 faux fur throw and this one is so much better! I was concerned the lining would be rough but it is super soft. It is luxurious (better than the picture) and so soft and cuddly. It is super thick but not heavy. I accidentally ordered two and am keeping both. Love this product." —K Shopper

I think nearly every member of my family now has an Amazon Fire TV Stick. My sisters were fighting over one for a while until one caved and finally bought her own — that's how much we love this product. Movie marathons will never be the same after buying this little gadget! You can truly watch anything your heart desires without leaving your bedroom.
Promising review: "We have been getting steady increases in our cable TV bill with no increases in services. So we thought we would cut the cord and this device became the focal point for making that transition. We are very pleased with the performance of this device. It is easy to setup with prompts provided as you power it up. We then added our favorite apps, (also very easy), and have never looked back at the cable TV being gone. We now save over $100 a month without those charges for cable TV. If you are thinking of making the leap into cord cutting, this is the way to go." —Stephen H. Jenkins

Hey, just because we're introverts doesn't necessarily mean we always want to sit in our house. It just means that when we do go out, we'd rather be by ourselves — as is depicted in this witty tee. Just think how relaxing it would be to go for a hike in mountains like these without trying to keep up with anyone else. Blissful.

I have a few of these beauties and cannot say enough good things about them. As someone who loves crystals and meditation, these soaps are simply breathtaking. I keep the Spirit of Eternity soap (complete with an opalite crystal) at my desk because it's so gorgeous and have California Christmas Tree at home (100% of the proceeds go to One Tree Planted!). Why NOT bring all the good vibes into your life, right?

This U-shaped pillow is here to keep you company this winter! It won't even mind if you want to watch every single season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey on an endless loop and it definitely won't mind when you want to order in instead of going out to a restaurant.
Promising review: "I am obsessed! Soon as it came out of the package that kept it flat, it poofed right up. And the grey cover is so soft. You can fluff it up for more support and it’s very versatile. Takes up half the bed so hubby is still fine, maybe just a little jealous lol. He just ends up cuddling the side I’m not using! Recommend this to anyone!" —Sarah Long

Promising review: "I really love these cozy, cute slippers! I read lots of slipper reviews before choosing these, and I'm glad I picked them. They feel really soft and warm on my feet, they stay on well, and they look nice. You might want to order the next size up if you're between sizes. The customer service for this was also excellent — super helpful and quick. If you need slippers, I highly recommend these!" —Elizabeth O'Brien

Whether it's the sweet elderly gentleman who would love nothing more than to tell you about his three precious grandchildren and their entire vacation plans or the anxious flyer who is looking to unload her fears on you, you know exactly what I'm referring to. Put up a blockade between you and any unwanted convos by slipping on this silky sleep mask.
Promising review: "This works really well for side sleepers due to the slim profile and the fact that it doesn't have foam forming materials. The silk can get a little warm but that's the case with all sleep masks. Like the fit and the silk. Great product at a great price and will purchase again when the one I have wears out." —AA

What could possibly be better than "exploring" a new city each month without having to actually leave your home? The Finders Seekers subscription box is perfect for introverts that crave a ~little~ adventure. It comes with fun puzzles, mysterious codes, and cryptic messages that are yours for the solving.
Promising review: "I just finished my second box and I absolutely adore this new fun part of my life!! I love that it is challenging, but when things get too rough there is a wonderfully warm and helpful community to turn to for help. Love it love it love it!!!" —Stacey

Ah, there are few things as satisfying for an introvert as a stack of classics. This tote bag expresses those sentiments perfectly, so you can take that happy feeling with you even when you do have to leave the house.
Promising review: "I bought this cute bag for my college-aged daughter, who always ends up juggling veggies when she shops for food! She loves books as well as Kate Spade bags, so this was perfect! It's multi purpose and foldable, so it's easy for her to keep handy. Once she received it she confirmed that its perfect, for books or veggies!" —Gwen Leite

What most people don't realize is that introverts simply like having me-time, we're not trying to fully isolate ourselves from all contact with the outside world! The Nintendo Switch is a great console to give those who are more ~reserved~ a chance to connect with others when they feel like it. You can play games like Legend of Zelda Link's Awakening on your own or join a friend to play Luigi's Mansion 3 game. This product is a winner for everyone!
Promising review: "The Switch is Nintendo's best device since the N64. I use my Switch every day. I commute by train so this has been perfect for me. There has never been a handheld this good. The transition to and from docked mode is seamless. The battery life is also pretty decent. Overall, it is a great device. Nintendo's back!" —Arjun S. Kahlon

Get it from Amazon for $18.47 (available in 14 colors).
Promising review: "This is a great rug! It's sturdy and the size is perfect. It's also great if you just want people to go away if they come to your door. You don't even have to talk to them — the rug let's them know that you aren't interested in what they have to say. The only problem is that your family might start ignoring the instructions on the rug so I recommend buying a couple of them and placing them around different parts of the house so that they get the message." —Erica H.

You know where I most like to hang out in my apartment? The bathroom. It's the one place I can yell, "GET OUT OF HERE" and it is socially acceptable. I also love relaxing in my tub for over an hour, and chances are introverts like you do, too. Transform your next bubble bath sesh into something even more magical by using this caddy. It has a place for your cup holder, tablet, a candle, and your phone. What more could you need?
Promising review: "Love this bath tray! I have had it for just a few days and so many people have already asked me where I got it. It has room for everything I need and makes for such relaxing baths! It’s pretty sturdy too." —MD

While the Hatch Rest+ is designed for babies, I don't see any reason why adults can't benefit from it as well —it's so much more than a sound machine! It's also a night light, an alarm clock, an LED clock, and a two-way audio monitor.
Promising review: "I have the original Hatch Baby Rest and really like using it as a nightlight and sound machine. Bought the new version so I could have the clock and don't have to look at my phone. I have a hard time sleeping in complete silence so I figured I would upgrade from leaving a fan on all night. I personally like the forest and white noise sounds the most. The touch ring on the top makes it easy to turn on and off, which is nice for when I get up in the middle of the night. I have prime and I got it the same day which was awesome! Tried it out last night and am loving it so far" —James Dumlao
