It’s just so good. Charged with an extraordinary energy. I’m astonished it’s her first. I wish I could read it for the first time all over again.

The kind of non-fiction that makes you reflect on ways of being, seeing, hearing, feeling, and engaging with the world. A shake up, in the best possible way.

If there's one book I've been hammering on about more than any other this year, it's Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer. There is simply not enough room on this little tile for me to adequately express how much I loved this book.

My latest bathtub read (it is exactly the right length for long bath, with no hot water top-ups required). So considered and well-written. I loved it in a way I’m still struggling to articulate. Is it possible to love a book simply for the extraordinarily calm feeling it bestows?

People who know me well will know that I’m married to a Swiftie, so it was particularly gleeful for both of us to discover that the Taylor Swift/Florence Welch song Florida!!! was inspired by Lauren Groff’s short stories... I recently re-read this absolute knock-out collection and - far out - they are little masterpieces in their evocation of place.
