| Still Life by Sarah Winman | This one felt like sitting at a long wooden table with friends—messy, tender, and full of life. It’s about found family, art, memory, and all the strange little moments that make up a full life. I didn’t want it to end. |
| The Kitchen Front by Jennifer Ryan | I loved this one for how comforting it felt—like an old radio broadcast you’d listen to while baking bread. Set during WWII, it follows four women competing in a cooking contest with rationed ingredients. It’s warm, empowering, and full of recipes I actually wanted to try. |
| Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer | This one is slower—but in the best way. It’s a gentle, wise book about plants, science, storytelling, and the relationship between people and the natural world. I read it in little bits, usually outside, and it made me see things differently. |
| Miss Buncle’s Book by D.E. Stevenson | If you’re ever in the mood for something light and charming, this one is like a cozy blanket. It’s about a quiet woman who writes a book under a pen name—and the small-town chaos that follows. It’s witty and wholesome, the perfect slow Sunday read. |
