I adore the “putting yourself on special measures” phrase and will certainly be using it going forward! I love the first two books in your list, and just now ordered the Kindle edition of Croissant and preordered (in the US) the hardcover of Let the Light Pour In. Thanks for these two recommendations!

Anna this is truly lovely. The simple, small pleasures bringing peace really resonated with me. Especially Only Murders and winter sunlight in my kitchen. Hope you are well. Sara

Love it! I also work in a newsroom and it's been such a challenging few weeks - thank you for this and for reminding me that there's a Katherine Heiny book I had missed. Fantastic recommendations and conversation here as always.

Oh and of course for me the "special measures" always involve Jane Austen 😂🌻
