The Comfort Book by Matt Haig was an unexpected and enjoyable read for me. I’ve read other books by the author, both fiction and non-fiction and found this to be a satisfying follow up to Reasons to Stay Alive. When I saw the structure of the book on the content page, along with so many listings, it seemed more like a journal. At first, I wasn’t sure if I was going to enjoy that however after finishing it, I found it to be one of best features of this book. It was a pleasure to pick up it for a little while at a time, enjoy a quote, short story or even a music playlist. Overall, I found the book hopeful and uplifting.

The Comfort Book
BY Matt Haig
Pub. Date: July 6, 2021
Penguin Life

A small book for anyone in search of hope, looking for a path to a more meaningful life, or in need of encouragement.

Happiness occurs when you forget who you're expected to be. And what you're expected to do. Happiness is an accident of self-acceptance. It's the warm breeze you feel when you open the door to who you are.

This is my second book by Matt Haig. This is a book you do not have to read in order and read slow as you need it.
5 star
