Kelsey Ford: New Year, New You: 9 Books for a Better You, 9 Books for a Worse You (0 comment)
I’m not a huge believer in new year’s resolutions — they always feel like set ups for failure and disappointment instead of the well-meaning self-bettering they’re intended to be. However, I do believe in the fresh promise of a new year and taking the opportunity to deliberately (and gently) think about your routines and what you might be missing...

What I Talk About When I Talk about Running

Haruki Murakami, Philip Gabriel [isbn]

A meditation on the disciplines of running and writing. Murakami reflects upon what he draws on, and his motivation and passion for both. His memoir subtly intersects his development and current undertaking of these pursuits. He insightfully contemplates the synthesis of body and mind. If you like running, if you like Murakami, you should buy this book!

The Elegance of the Hedgehog

Muriel Barbery [isbn]

I'm a person that is seldom drawn on a favorite tag. I can do a top five or top ten (in no particular order of course), but since I read The Elegance of the Hedgehog in 2009, it has claimed the tag of being my favorite book and not let go. I'm not sure how many times I have reread it, but it doesn't feel like enough. I am always discovering some new detail or being reminded of a passage that resonates up from the depths of my memory.

The Snowman

Raymond Briggs [isbn]

A heartbreakingly beautiful and magical story told through the wonderful illustrations of Raymond Briggs. A classic from the British Isles, highly recommend following up the book with the animated holiday film version, which features an amazing musical score.
