It's a courtroom drama / historical fiction / mystery that takes place in an isolated area. The writing is atmospheric and gripping. It's not quite 500 pag..."

I've contemplated reading that book but courtroom drama lost me lol.

My first read of the new year is The Comfort Book by Matt Haig. I checked it out from work on a whim and I absolutely love it. It's been the perfect book for me to start with this year. I will definitely be purchasing a copy to add to my own book collection. It's something that I could re-read and get something different from every time. It's like little golden nuggets of advice from a best friend, or a warm hug when you need it most. Highly recommend checking this one out.
