We don't know about you, but there's something about fall that makes us want to curl up with a book, scented candle and hot beverage of the pumpkin spice variety. And while our book club participation may have gone virtual this season, we can still get our literary fix with this cute book club scented candle.
Homesick 'Book Club' Candle
SHOP IT: Homesick, $45 ($34 USD)
With notes of nutmeg, amber and sandalwood, Homesick's Book Club candle is the perfect “Heather's Pick” companion. All Homesick candles are hand-poured in the US and use a natural soy wax blend with 100% organic cotton wicks and custom fragrance oils. “Book Club” has a burn time of 60 to 80 hours (in case you wanted to tackle Middlemarch) and contain no lead, plastics, parabens, phthalates or synthetic dyes.
Alongside Book Club, Homesick's candles are available in scents like New Job, Pumpkin Picking, and Canada (which, of course, contains notes of butter, fir needle and maple).

Why users love it
"Just came back from extended holiday at Banff, Jasper and Yoho — Purchased this candle to keep the smells and memories of this heaven on earth alive — and was not disappointed! Candle smells exactly like Canada!"
“I’m always curious when I see candles that have scents inspired by spaces, and memories,” wrote one Book Club buyer. “This candle really does remind me of being in a library— it has leather notes that are sweetened by what is reminiscent of vanilla. If you really like Diptyque’s Vanille candle, go for this one! It’s so similar but unique on its own!”
To help welcome you into the unofficial book club season, we've rounded up some of the coolest candles you can grab this fall. Happy reading!
