Lucy Mangan, Bookish: How Reading Shapes Our Lives

Lucy Mangan lives the life I want to lead and writes how I'd love to write. Funny, self-deprecating, bookish, socially anxious and just wanting to be left alone. Massive envy now for her purpose-built library and I feel better about the 2,000 book sin our house when she has 10,000 in hers Didn't get as many new book recommendations as I normally do from reading her work, but maybe, and incredibly, I have finished mining the seam of her knowledge now I've read three books of hers that are full of recommendations. IRL, I am recovering from the Chichester Harbour half marathon ten days ago, which really sapped my strength. Helen, Libby and William all have shows coming up so it's a busy time as well as it being year end at work.
