Simon Winchester, Atlantic: Great Sea Battles, Heroic Discoveries, Titanic Storms & a Vast Ocean of a Million Stories

Bianca Bosker
“Hospitality is present when something happens for you. It is absent when something happens to you.”
Bianca Bosker, Cork Dork: A Wine-Fueled Adventure Among the Obsessive Sommeliers, Big Bottle Hunters, and Rogue Scientists Who Taught Me to Live for Taste

Matt Haig

Matt Haig, How to Stop Time
