I look forward to your newsletter every week, because you help me choose what to read next. The Correspondent is looking like my favorite book of the year, but hold on! I just finished The Book of Lost Hours, and holy crap was that good!

I also totally get that some books need to be read at a specific time of year, never mind a specific mental state to handle them.

Thank you for your most delightful posts.
