Hi! I’m Julianne — a/k/a Jules Buono!
I’m passionate about inspiring women to read more. I just can’t stop reading in my free time and I love sharing it. My goal is to serve busy women who are looking to make each day even a little bit better and more meaningful in all facets of life, primarily by reading more. And I like to pair books with fun lifestyle items, like style and recipes.
I’ve been on The Today Show‘s Read with Jenna book club on TV, as well as Oprah’s Book Club and Reese’s Book Club on Instagram, and Buzzfeed.
Here are 25 fun facts about me:
1 – I met my husband Tony via Match.com in 2012 and we got married in 2019.
2 – We have three rescue cats, Minnie, Lillian and Romeo.
3 – We live in a rowhouse in Philadelphia.
4 – I grew up in Scranton, Pennsylvania — home of The Office, which is, naturally, my favorite tv show.
5 – I also love the Gilmore Girls and host @TheRoryGilmoreBookClub on Instagram.
6 – Martha’s Vineyard is our summer sanctuary (also where we got engaged!), and I think about it all year long.
7 – I strive for a long-lasting wardrobe of classic, preppy, American style.
8 – I mostly eat vegan food.
9 – My favorite guilty pleasures are vegan pasta, ice cream and Philly “cheesesteaks.”
10 – I am a beauty addict and especially love clean skincare and finding new holy grail products.
11 – I’m also obsessed with Trader Joe’s.
12 – I have a hard time motivating myself to workout, but I LOVE yoga.
13 – My go-to coffee order is cafe au lait with oat milk.
14 – My most preferred glass of wine is a smooth red. I also love a buttery Chardonnay or a refreshing Rose when the mood strikes.
15 – I’m a very hygge person overall and love all things cozy and comfy.
16 – I love the color mint green but mostly wear blue.
17 – I have been influenced most by Mary Tyler Moore and Audrey Hepburn.
18 – I wear flats 95% of the time.
19 – I’m an Aquarius, which makes me value uniqueness, creativity and social issues.
20 – My personality type is INFJ — the least common type, also known as “the counselor.” Famous INFJs include Gandhi, Eleanor Roosevelt, J.K. Rowling and the character Atticus Finch.
21 – I struggle with loud noises and long periods of extroverting.
22 – I’m a Type 6 (wing 5) on the Enneagram test (“the loyalist”). I worry a lot but am very loyal, dependent, problem-solving, and practical.
23 – I live for a good deal and the next best thing to test out, so I’m a sucker for online shopping.
24 – I love Philly sports, especially the Phillies, the Eagles and the Villanova Wildcats.
25 – I get so much joy in sharing things that matter to me and can help others too, whether it’s a product or a news story, but most especially a good book, so follow along for your next great read!
