Lately, I’ve noticed that when I share that I found my way back to reading after my mom passed away, several people say they, too, turned to reading for comfort when they were grieving.

Books mentioned in the audio:

The Midnight Library by Matt Haig

Writers & Lovers by Lily King

The Paper Palace by Miranda Cowley Heller

Still Life by Sarah Winman
