Your weekly shopping guide Gaming Writer October 21, 2022 As the long nights begin to draw in, it's

Your weekly shopping guide [View in browser]( [IndyBest]( [IndyBest]( [Jasper Pickering]( Jasper Pickering](, Gaming Writer October 21, 2022 As the long nights begin to draw in, it's important to remember to stay cosy, perhaps with a [warm blanket](, [space heater]( or even a nice cup of [hot coffee](. It's safe to say that the [IndyBest]( team are masters of the Danish art of "[hygge](", practicing it with [scented candles]( or rustling up a [nice stew]( in a season-appropriate Dutch oven, we're always on the lookout for the best products to make those cold evenings just a little bit warmer. If you're like me, settling down on the sofa with a good [film](, [book]( or [video game]( is an excellent way to spend those longer nights. The Danes know a thing or two about passing the time as well, with [festive Lego sets]( and [advent calendars]( to count down the days into the holiday season. While Christmas might seem like a distant day on our [calendars](, it never hurts to get gift shopping in early. Luckily, [Black Friday]( season (basically the whole month of November at this point) is not far off, so we'll be hunting down the best deals when the [Halloween festivities]( have come to an end.   Sephora is back Stop what you're doing right now because beauty retailer Sephora is returning to our hallowed shores 17 years after the French [beauty]( retailer made the decision to close its stores here – and we couldn’t be more excited. [Sephora opening UK]( Sephora is only available online at this stage. But fear not, beauty lovers, because the retailer will be opening a bricks-and-mortar store in London in the spring of next year. If you're wondering what to shop, our beauty editor, [Louise Whitbread](, has the full guide on what to look out for. The retailer is even making a grand entrance to the market with the launch of [four new advent calendars](, just in time for Christmas. [Read more](   Book(er) it in If you missed the news earlier this week, author Shehan Karunatilaka has won the 2022 [Booker Prize]( for his “daring” [novel]( The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida. The searing title is set among the mayhem of the Sri Lankan civil war, and was described by the chair of judges, Neil MacGregor, as being a “metaphysical thriller, an afterlife noir that dissolves the boundaries not just of different genres, but of life and death, body and spirit, east and west”. [Booker prize winner 2022]( Karunatilaka’s deft and moving novel beat [five other shortlisted novels]( to the post, all of which, in one way or another, answered the question of what is the importance of an individual life, and what can be achieved. The shortlist provides an opportunity to be immersed in masterful storytelling. In honour of the 2022 winning announcement, our writer [Eva Waite-Taylor]( took a look at The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida and the previous four top Booker titles that preceded it, which all showcase the power of the written word. [Read more](   Aw, rats If you're looking to pick up a brand new title to play on [PlayStation](, [Xbox]( or [PC](, then A Plague Tale Requiem could be a top choice. Following on from A Plague Tale Innocence, siblings Amicia and Hugo must escape the French inquisition, as well as a literal sea of rats, across the Mediterranean as they find a cure for the ancient curse that ails the younger brother. [A Plague Tale Requiem review]( In [our review](, I said of the stealthy action-adventure: "Both in scale and execution, [A Plague Tale Requiem]( is an ambitious follow-up to Innocence that retools its core puzzle-and-stealth gameplay for a broader and more satisfying historical narrative adventure with fantasy elements." If you happen to be a subscriber to [Xbox Game Pass](, you'll also be able to play the game at no extra cost, so it's definitely worth checking out. [Read more](   Are your ears burning? We're big fans of [Aldi]( here at IndyBest. Whether you're looking for a [casserole dish]( or a [Christmas hamper](, there's sure to be something worth nabbing. And if you want to hunker down without turning the heating on, a hooded blanket may be just what you need. Essentially a very oversized hoodie, these wearable blankets come complete with sleeves and a hood – and are perfect for cocooning yourself as the weather cools. Now, Aldi has launched its own kids version for just £9.99. [Beaufort & Blake]( Made from 100 per cent polyester, Aldi’s mini me blanket hoodie is touted to be soft and plush to the touch. Though the budget supermarket’s design is sans sleeves, the large design will be perfect for wrapping up little ones in. The playful animal ears will delight kids, too.
